Conley posted seven points (2-8 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 121-100 victory over the Pelicans.

EDGE Analysis

The Jazz handled the Pelicans with relative ease, but it was a mostly quiet night for the veteran guard, who made his return to action after sitting out Saturday's game at Denver on the second night of a back-to-back. Conley had previously missed a string of nine straight games from Nov. 21 to Dec. 7 due to a lower-leg injury.

Conley is in the starting lineup Wednesday against New Orleans, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Conley will resume his normal starting role after coming off the bench Dec. 9 against Minnesota. The veteran has averaged 10.2 points, 7.9 assists and 2.4 rebounds in 17 previous starts.

Jazz coach Will Hardy said Conley won't have a set minutes limit in Tuesday's matchup with the Pelicans, Ben Anderson of KSLsports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Conley made his return last Friday from a nine-game absence due to a lower-body injury before resting for the second leg of a back-to-back Sunday. However, the veteran guard won't have any restrictions Tuesday, as he played only 25 minutes against Minnesota. Conley is averaging 29.0 minutes across 18 games this season.

Conley will take a rest day Saturday versus the Nuggets, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Conley returned from a nine-game absence Friday following a lower-body injury, posting 17 points, six assists and a rebound over 25 minutes off the bench in a 118-108 loss to the Timberwolves. It's not surprising the veteran point guard will get a night off in the second game of a back-to-back set, but he should be back on the floor Tuesday versus the Pelicans. Jordan Clarkson and Nickeil Alexander-Walker are the primary candidates to see time on the ball Saturday, as Collin Sexton (hamstring) is joining Conley on the sideline.

Conley, who's returning to action following a nine-game absence due to a lower-body injury, will come off the bench and be a on a minutes restriction during Friday's matchup against Minnesota, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Conley is set to make his first appearance since Nov. 19 following a prolonged absence due to a lower-body injury. The veteran isn't quite ready to handle a starting role, so with Collin Sexton (hamstring) out, Jordan Clarkson and Nickeil Alexander-Walker will start in Utah's backcourt. Before the injury, Conley posted 10.9 points, 8.2 assists, 2.5 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 30.5 minutes per game, but he may be a risky fantasy play while he works his way back to full strength.

Conley (lower leg) has been cleared to take the floor Friday versus the Timberwolves, Tim MacMahon of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Conley is set to rejoin the action following an extended period on the sideline, last suiting up Nov. 19 against the Trail Blazers. He should be in for a healthy workload in this one with Collin Sexton (hamstring) out, though the team could opt to ease the veteran back in a bit, given his lengthy layoff. If that's the case, Jordan Clarkson and Nickeil Alexander-Walker would be candidates to see some additional run at point guard.

Conley (lower leg) anticipates playing in Friday's game versus the Timberwolves Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Conley is officially questionable to take the floor, but the veteran indicated Friday that he intends to play, especially with Collin Sexton (hamstring) missing the contest. Conley should log a healthy amount of action at point guard, assuming his leg holds up, with Jordan Clarkson likely figuring to occasionally relieve him on the ball.

Conley (lower leg) is listed as questionable for Friday's contest against the Timberwolves, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.

EDGE Analysis

After missing the Jazz's last nine games with a lower leg injury, the veteran guard could make his return to the floor Friday against the Timberwolves. With Conley questionable and Collin Sexton (hamstring) ruled out, expect Jordan Clarkson and Malik Beasley to see an uptick in minutes. The 35-year-old's next chance to see the court would be Saturday against Denver if he's unable to go Friday.

The Jazz anticipate that Conley (lower leg) will be available to play Friday against the Timberwolves, barring a setback, Tim MacMahon of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Utah will likely observe Conley during morning shootaround Friday before providing an update on his status in advance of the 9 p.m. ET opening tip. The Jazz have gone 3-6 while the veteran point guard has been sidelined for the past nine games, so his expected return should be a welcome development. Since Friday marks the front end of a back-to-back set, Conley could end up sitting out Saturday in Denver if he ends up playing against the Timberwolves, or he could have a minutes restriction if he's deemed available for both contests.

Conley (leg) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Conley will miss a ninth straight game due to a leg injury. Lauri Markkanen (illness) is also out, so Collin Sexton and Jordan Clarkson figure to handle the majority of the playmaking duties against Golden State.
