Kyle Filipowski provided an improved performance in Thursday’s exhibition against the Trail Blazers, tallying nine points, two rebounds, and two steals. Starting in a role reversal with Taylor Hendricks, Filipowski displayed offensive promise, while Hendricks came off the bench. The team appears to be evaluating lineup options, and this could lead to a timeshare situation, impacting the fantasy potential of both players.

Kyle Filipowski was a full participant in Sunday’s practice, indicating progress in his recovery from a lower back injury. Having been limited in the preseason, Filipowski is unlikely to start the regular season as a starter for the Jazz but is expected to see increased minutes. With potential availability issues for Lauri Markkanen and Walker Kessler, Filipowski could become a valuable late-round pick for fantasy managers looking for upside as the season progresses.
