Lauri Markkanen, Taylor Hendricks, Jusuf Nurkic, Ace Bailey and Keyonte George will start against the Mavericks on Monday.

Markkanen will make his 2025 preseason debut on Monday, replacing Svi Mykhailuk in the starting unit. Markkanen played just 47 regular-season games for the Jazz last season, where he averaged his lowest points per game since 2021-22. The remaining four starters will make their third starts of the preseason against the Mavericks as they look to collect their first win.

IND Forward #22
Isaiah Jackson (concussion) is out for Saturday’s game against the Heat.

T.J. McConnell

IND Guard #9

T.J. McConnell (hamstring) is out for Saturday’s game against the Heat.

McConnell is out with right hamstring soreness after scoring 13 points in 14 minutes in Friday’s loss to the Celtics. The 33-year-old backup point guard only played in one game of a back-to-back earlier this week and he’ll do the same here. He’s not playing enough minutes to be rostered in most fantasy leagues this year.

Aaron Nesmith (knee) is questionable for Saturday’s game against the Heat.

Nesmith has been out since November 13 with a left knee sprain. His questionable status shows that a return could happen as soon as Saturday night. Even if Nesmith is ultimately held out, he should be back on the floor sometime in the near future.

Trae Young (quad) is probable for Saturday’s game against the Knicks.

Young is dealing with a right thigh contusion, but is likely to be available against the Knicks given his probable status Saturday despite it being the second game of a back-to-back. The 27-year-old point guard had 30 points and five three-pointers in Friday’s loss to the Heat.
