Jazz's Brice Sensabaugh: Pops for 26 points in loss
Rotowire
Sensabaugh ended with 26 points (11-21 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two rebounds and two assists in 33 minutes during Saturday's 134-109 loss to the Suns.
Sensabaugh has made the most of his opportunities during Utah's rash of injuries despite missing a few games over the past couple of weeks. The Ohio State product has logged seven starts this month despite spending most of the season stuck on the depth chart behind Lauri Markkanen (hip) and Ace Bailey. The short-handed situation has significantly heightened Sensabaugh's profile, and he'll likely keep up the production as the season comes to a close.

Jazz's Brice Sensabaugh: Iffy for Monday
Rotowire
Sensabaugh (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against the Spurs.
Sensabaugh was a late addition to the injury report and is iffy for the front end of this back-to-back set. He's been on a heater for the Jazz over his last four games, posting averages of 25.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 2.5 three-pointers. With the team already shorthanded, the Jazz could use a committee approach to absorb his minutes if he's unable to play.
