Top Ace Bailey News

  • Jazz's Ace Bailey: Could be looking at new role

    Bailey's (back) role is undetermined heading into the 2026-27 campaign.

    The addition of No. 2 overall pick Darryn Peterson may leave Bailey without a spot in Utah's starting lineup to begin the new year. The Jazz are also getting Keyonte George and Lauri Markkanen back in the lineup after the two stars sat out the final stretch of a losing season in 2025-26. Bailey began to blossom late last year, averaging 18.3 points, 4.9 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.1 blocks per game in 23 regular-season appearances (all starts) after the All-Star break, so he should have a chance to battle with Peterson for an Opening Night starting position.

  • Jazz's Ace Bailey: Out with back spasms

    Bailey (back) won't play in Friday's Summer League game against Portland, per Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City.

    The Jazz are giving Bailey Friday night off while he tends to right back spasms. Given the nature of the injury, the 2025 first-rounder should be fully recovered in time for training camp this fall.

  • Jazz's Ace Bailey: Won't play Wednesday

    Bailey (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Las Vegas Summer League game against the Spurs, per Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City.

  • Jazz's Ace Bailey: Exits with back spasms Sunday

    Bailey exited Sunday's Las Vegas Summer League loss to the Clippers with back spasms and did not return, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.

    Bailey only managed to make it through eight minutes before aggravating his back, and it's already been announced he will miss Monday's meeting with the Bulls. The Jazz will likely be extra cautious with Bailey's back issue during these exhibition games, so for now, he should be considered doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Spurs.

  • Jazz's Ace Bailey: Available Sunday

    Bailey (back) is available for Sunday's Summer League game against the Clippers, Chandler Holt of KSL Sports reports.

    Bailey is available to return from a three-game absence due to back spasms. The 19-year-old wing has played in just one game this summer, posting 10 points (4-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, one steal and one block in 20 minutes during the July 4 overtime win over Atlanta.

  • Jazz's Ace Bailey: Doesn't play Thursday

    Bailey missed Utah's last two Salt Lake City Summer League games due to back spasms, and he didn't suit up for the club's Las Vegas Summer League opener. His next opportunity to play will come Sunday against the Clippers.

  • Jazz's Ace Bailey: Won't play Tuesday

    Bailey (back) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Salt Lake City Summer League game against the Thunder, Travis Green of ABC4 Utah reports.

    Bailey was held out of Monday's contest due to back spasms and will remain sidelined Tuesday as the Jazz opt to rest some of their top young players. His next chance to play will come Thursday against the Wizards in the Las Vegas Summer League.

  • Jazz's Ace Bailey: Quiet outing in Summer League

    Bailey finished with 10 points (4-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, one steal and one block in 20 minutes of Sunday's 103-102 Salt Lake City Summer League win over the Hawks.

    This was Bailey's first look alongside Darryn Peterson, and it was immediately clear who the offense flowed through. Bailey is projected to come off the bench in his second season, and it's clear that he has a lot of work to do to move up fantasy draft boards.

  • Jazz's Ace Bailey: Dip in usage coming?

    Bailey will enter his second NBA season playing alongside franchise guard Darryn Peterson, who Utah took with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft.

    The pairing gives the Jazz a dynamic young offensive core, with Peterson's playmaking potentially creating easier scoring opportunities for Bailey and Keyonte George. While usage distribution remains uncertain, Bailey still projects as one of Utah's foundational building blocks. After the All-Star break, Bailey averaged 18.3 points, 4.9 boards and 2.0 dimes in 23 regular-season games.
