Utah

Jazz

Acquired from the Hornets as part of the LaMelo Ball trade, Green never got to actually suit up for the Timberwolves. He appeared in 58 games for the Hornets last season, averaging 4.3 points in 15.7 minutes. While Green can be a capable perimeter defender for the Jazz, his game won’t impact fantasy basketball. Trading Green’s contract gives the Timberwolves the room needed to make Jonathan Kuminga’s signing official.

The addition of LeBron James via free agency has opened the door for others to consider Philadelphia as a new home, even though the 76ers have limited roster space. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope has agreed to a one-year deal, and there have reportedly been conversations between the team and Love’s agent. However, the 76ers have two backup centers on the roster in Adem Bona and offseason signing Ariel Hukporti. Also, the KCP signing filled Philadelphia’s standard contract slots, meaning someone would have to be moved to make room for Love. In a reserve role, the veteran forward/center is unlikely to be in a position to consistently impact fantasy basketball next season.

With no Darryn Peterson, the Jazz had to look elsewhere for offensive production on Monday. Robinson, who is with the team as an unrestricted free agent, was one of the players who stepped up. The veteran center finished one rebound shy of a double-double and blocked two shots. Utah’s three two-way contract slots are currently occupied, but players like Robinson are effectively auditioning for the entire NBA in Las Vegas. He’ll look to leave with either a two-way deal or an Exhibit 10 that includes an invite to training camp.

Alexander signed a two-way contract with Utah just a couple days prior, which made this his first game for his new team. Akexander wasn’t able to carve out much of a role in Denver or New Orleans, and he’ll likely once again spend most of his time in the G League. However, he had some solid moments in this game, including a pair of late triples.

Though he clearly isn’t a finished product, Williams has shown progress entering his third season. He looks like how a third-year NBA player should look in summer league. Williams was solid in this game and should be a rotation piece for Utah this season, though the amount of depth they have may make it difficult for him to carve out a large role.

Peterson was a star during summer league in Salt Lake City, and that commanded the attention of Washington’s defense for the entire game. From the beginning, the Wizards applied full-court pressure when Peterson brought the ball up and made his life incredibly difficult. Though he still had some star flashes, this was by far his worst performance of the summer. He was reckless with the ball at times and committed nine fouls. He’ll look to bounce back against the Clippers on Sunday.

The sixth overall pick in the 2018 draft, Bamba is still looking to cement himself as a pro after an inconsistent run in Orlando to begin his NBA career. He’s appeared in 36 NBA games over the last two seasons, including four in 2025-26. Signed to a 10-day deal by the Jazz in March, Bamba played two games for Utah, corralling 20 rebounds. He made a good enough impression to earn a contract from Utah, but Bamba’s return is unlikely to affect fantasy basketball.

Williams entered the offseason with two directives: get stronger and improve defensively. He’s reportedly added 10 pounds to his frame, and the Jazz forward had an excellent all-around performance on Monday. After committing six turnovers in Saturday’s summer opener, Williams committed two against the Grizzlies and shot over 50 percent from the field. With the Jazz focused on actually competing next season, Williams’ margin for error is likely to be slim if he’s to earn rotation minutes. As for the rest of this summer, Utah’s decision-makers likely hope that he’ll show early in Las Vegas that he’s too good to be playing.

After dishing out two assists in his summer debut on Saturday, Peterson was elite as a playmaker on Monday. Two turnovers offset his 12 assists, and the second overall pick in last month’s draft also shot over 50 percent from the field. Even with the Jazz having Keyonte George and Isaiah Collier on the roster, there will be times when they need Peterson to do more playmaking for others. His improved ability to balance searching for his shot with getting others involved was highly encouraging and a reminder of the fantasy value he may provide as a rookie.

Bailey exited Saturday’s exhibition against the Hawks with back spasms and will not play in Monday’s game as a result. He’ll miss out on an opportunity to establish greater chemistry with lottery pick Darryn Peterson. Still, the hope is that Bailey will be available for Utah’s summer league games in Las Vegas.
