Warriors' Omer Yurtseven: Re-signs with Warriors
Yurtseven signed a second 10-day contract with the Warriors on Wednesday, Anthony Slater of ESPN.com reports.
This is an expected signing for Golden State's depleted frontcourt. Across five appearances, Yurtseven has averaged 11.2 minutes per contest.

Omer Yurtseven: Reaches free agency
Yurtseven became a free agent Wednesday after his 10-day contract with the Warriors expired, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
Golden State will have the ability to retain Yurtseven on a second 10-day deal or a rest-of-season contract, but it's unclear if the team intends to re-sign the veteran center prior to Wednesday's game against Brooklyn. Over the course of his initial 10-day deal, Yurtseven averaged 3.2 points, 3.2 rebounds and 0.8 assists in 11.2 minutes per game over his first five appearances before he was left out of the rotation in Monday's 137-131 overtime win over the Mavericks.

Warriors' Omer Yurtseven: Drops out of rotation
Yurtseven (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Monday in the Warriors' 137-131 overtime win over the Mavericks.
After signing a 10-day deal with Golden State on March 15, Yurtseven had appeared in each of the Warriors' previous five games and averaged 3.2 points and 3.2 rebounds in 11.2 minutes per contest. Though Quinten Post (foot) joined Al Horford (calf) on the sideline for Monday's contest, the return of Kristaps Porzingis (back) from a one-game absence was enough to bump Yurtseven from the rotation.

Warriors' Omer Yurtseven: Increased role in loss
Yurtseven had eight points (3-7 FG, 2-6 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal over 21 minutes during Friday's 115-101 loss to the Pistons.
Yurtseven logged a season-high 21 minutes, playing a sizable role after Kristaps Porzingis exited the game in the second quarter due to a back issue. Already dealing with a paper-thin frontcourt, Golden State now has another injury to deal with. Should Porzingis be forced to miss additional time, Yurtseven could find himself serving as the backup center, making him a name to watch in slightly deeper formats.

Warriors' Omer Yurtseven: Expected to sign 10-day contract
The Warriors are expected to sign Yurtseven to a 10-day contract, per NBA reporter Marc Stein.
Golden State is turning to Yurtseven to provide immediate frontcourt reinforcement as the team navigates a brutal injury crisis. The Warriors' depth was decimated during Friday's loss to Minnesota, when Al Horford (calf) and Quinten Post (ankle) both exited early, joining Draymond Green (back) on the sidelines. Kristaps Porzingis (illness), Green and Horford have all been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Knicks, while Post is listed as questionable.

Omer Yurtseven: Agrees to deal with Panathinaikos
Yurtseven agreed to a deal with Panathinaikos on Monday, Eurohoops reports.
The deal isn't finalized yet, but the 6-foot-11 big man is expected to return to Europe to finish his career. After spending three years with Fenerbache to start his basketball career, Yurtseven went to the United States for college in 2016. He spent four years at NC State before transferring to Georgetown. He wasn't selected in the 2020 NBA Draft but received a G League opportunity and worked his way into the Heat's rotation in 2021, averaging 5.3 points and 5.3 rebounds in 12.6 minutes across 56 appearances (12 starts). After making only nine appearances for Miami in 2022, Yurtseven joined the Jazz in 2023 and played 48 games (12 starts), averaging 4.6 points and 4.3 rebounds in 11.4 minutes.

Omer Yurtseven: Parts ways with Utah
The Jazz will waive Yurtseven on Sunday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Yurtseven was scheduled to earn $2.66 million in 2024-25, but since that portion of the two-year deal he signed in July 2023 was non-guaranteed, the Jazz will be free of any financial obligation by waiving him. The 6-foot-11 center made 48 appearances for Utah in 2023-24, averaging 4.6 points and 4.3 rebounds in 11.4 minutes. He'll look to find work elsewhere as a second- or third-string center.

Jazz's Omer Yurtseven: Productive in season finale Sunday
Yurtseven supplied 11 points (5-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 18 rebounds and two assists over 30 minutes during Sunday's 123-116 loss to the Warriors.
Yurtseven spent most of the season as the third-string center behind John Collins (back) and Walker Kessler (nose), but since both were ruled out for the season finale, Yurtseven stepped into a starting role and looked quite good, posting a double-double and making his presence felt on the glass. Yurtseven started Utah's final six games of the campaign, scoring in double digits four times and posting two double-doubles in that span.

Jazz's Omer Yurtseven: Double-double against Nuggets
Yurtseven ended with 20 points (9-14 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and two steals in 37 minutes during Tuesday's 111-95 loss to Denver.
Making his third straight start in the absence of John Collins (back) and Walker Kessler (nose), Yurtseven delivered his first double-double of the season. The 25-year-old center has averaged 13.3 points, 8.3 boards, 1.0 assists and 1.0 steals during his brief starting stint, and with Utah headed back to the draft lottery, Yurtseven could see a significant role over the final three regular-season games.

Jazz's Omer Yurtseven: Posts 12 points in starting role
Yurtseven registered 12 points (6-10 FG), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal over 21 minutes during Friday's 131-102 loss to the Clippers.
Yurtseven garnered the start with John Collins (back) and Walker Kessler (nose) on the sidelines. Though Yurtseven has had a very inconsistent role throughout the campaign, he's proven to be an effective rebounder when called upon. Across his seven starts, Yurtseven is averaging 6.9 points, 8.4 boards, 1.1 assists and 0.9 blocks over 21.0 minutes per contest.

Jazz's Omer Yurtseven: Starting against Clippers
Yurtseven will start against the Clippers on Friday, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
John Collins (back) and Walker Kessler (nose) are both sidelined, so Yurtseven could have a sizable role Friday night. In six starts this season, Yurtseven averaged 6.0 points, 8.7 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.0 blocks.

Jazz's Omer Yurtseven: Gets green light
Yurtseven (ankle) is available for Monday's game against the Mavericks.
Yurtseven will return to action Monday after missing Saturday's loss to the Rockets due to a right ankle sprain. However, Utah is at full strength, save for Kris Dunn (suspension), so it's unclear how big of a role Yurtseven will have off the bench.

Jazz's Omer Yurtseven: Listed as questionable for Monday
Yurtseven (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game against Dallas.
Yurtseven sat out Saturday's game against the Rockets due to a right ankle sprain, and it's unclear whether he'll be able to return to action Monday. If he's available, Yurtseven is unlikely to see significant playing time.

Jazz's Omer Yurtseven: Not playing Saturday
Yurtseven (ankle) is out for Saturday's game against the Rockets, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
Yurtseven logged 21 minutes in the 113-97 loss to the Mavericks on Thursday, but he won't be available Saturday while he tends to a right ankle sprain. With John Collins (face) set to return from a one-game absence Saturday, he and Walker Kessler will likely split nearly all the minutes at center, so Yurtseven presumably would have been outside of the rotation even if he were available.

Jazz's Omer Yurtseven: Questionable for Saturday
Yurtseven is questionable to play Saturday against the Rockets due to a right ankle sprain.
Yurtseven hasn't played much for the Jazz in recent weeks, averaging just 12.3 minutes per game since the beginning of March. However, his absence could prove to be a big one Saturday since Lauri Markkanen (injury maintenance) is out and John Collins (face) is questionable, leaving the frontcourt quite thin in terms of depth.
