Hendricks finished with 21 points (7-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, one assist and three steals in 27 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 137-128 loss to the Grizzlies.
EDGE Analysis
The third-year forward saw his biggest workload of the season with both Lauri Markkanen (groin) and Jusuf Nurkic (rest) missing from the Utah frontcourt, and Hendricks turned the opportunity into a new season scoring high. After losing his spot in the rotation in early November, Hendricks is fighting to regain it. Over his last six appearances, he's averaging 11.2 points, 3.3 boards, 1.8 threes, 0.7 assists and 0.7 steals in just 19.5 minutes while shooting 68.8 percent from the floor and 61.1 percent (11-for-18) from beyond the arc.

Hendricks contributed five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt) and two rebounds over 13 minutes during Monday's 135-112 loss to the Nuggets.
EDGE Analysis
Hendricks continues to play a minimal role, having exceeded 20 minutes only twice in the past 22 games. Seen as a decent late-round flier coming into the season, Hendricks quickly found himself on the waiver wire in just about every redraft format. Through 17 appearances, he has averaged just 5.4 points and 3.4 rebounds in 14.9 minutes per contest.

Hendricks was recalled from the G League's Salt Lake City Stars to the Utah Jazz on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Hendricks has not had a consistent role within Utah's rotation, but he has shown flashes of potential, such as his 20-point performance Dec. 7 against Oklahoma City. In 13 games this season, Hendricks averages 5.1 points, 3.6 rebounds, 0.5 assists, 0.4 steals and 0.3 blocks across 14.6 minutes.

Utah assigned Hendricks to the G League's Salt Lake City Stars on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Hendricks made a strong impression during Sunday's loss to the Thunder, finishing with 20 points (6-10 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one block across 25 minutes off the bench. However, the Jazz are off until Friday, so Hendricks will join Walter Clayton and Cody Williams for what is likely to be a short stint in Salt Lake City.

Hendricks closed with 20 points (6-10 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one block across 25 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 131-101 loss to Oklahoma City.
EDGE Analysis
The third-year forward established a new season scoring high while tying his career high in made three-pointers, as he played 20-plus minutes for only the second time in 2025-26. Hendricks has had trouble staying healthy ever since being the ninth overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, but the Jazz still have an incentive to see if he can carve out a consistent role in the rotation.

Utah recalled Hendricks from the G League's Salt Lake City Stars on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
With Kevin Love resting and Jusuf Nurkic (ribs) questionable, Hendricks could have a chance to work his way back into Utah's rotation Thursday against the Nets.

The Jazz transferred Hendricks to the G League's Salt Lake City Stars on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The move offers Hendricks an opportunity to get extended work in, as he hasn't been part of Utah's regular rotation recently. He's averaged just 14.3 minutes per game over 11 contests for the Jazz.

The Jazz assigned Hendricks to the G League's Salt Lake City Stars on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
After missing four consecutive games due to a right hamstring strain, Hendricks has been available for the Jazz's last two games, but he hasn't been part of the rotation. Hendricks didn't play in Tuesday's 140-126 loss to the Lakers in a coach's decision, and though he returned to action for Friday's 144-112 loss to the Thunder and finished with one point (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal, he didn't check into the game until 8:05 remained in the fourth quarter. At least for the time being, the Jazz appear set to proceed with Kyle Filipowski and Cody Williams as their main backups at the forward spots, so Hendricks will head to the G League and will likely see meaningful minutes Saturday with the Stars in their matchup with the Stockton Kings. Expect him to rejoin the Jazz ahead of Sunday's game against the Lakers.

Hendricks (hamstring) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Lakers, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hendricks has remained sidelined for Utah's last four matchups while nursing a strained right hamstring. He'll presumably be evaluated further during the team's morning shootaround before a decision on his status for Tuesday is decided.
