Ace Bailey Injury News & Updates
Dec 8, 2025
Modest production continues
Bailey racked up 13 points (5-14 FG, 3-8 3Pt), one rebound, four assists, one block and one steal across 32 minutes during Sunday's 131-101 loss to the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
Bailey's production has spiked yet, but he has been a consistent producer since moving into the starting lineup, averaging 13.1 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.5 blocks in 26.3 minutes over his last 14 appearances. Bailey has played at least 32 minutes in two straight games, recording at least one steal and one block in each of those contests. Before this two-game stretch, Bailey had played more than 30 minutes only three times in 21 appearances.
Dec 2, 2025
Swats three shots in win
Bailey registered 13 points (5-11 FG, 3-8 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists, three blocks and two steals in 28 minutes during Monday's 133-125 victory over Houston.
ANALYSIS
Bailey did the majority of his scoring from beyond the arc and has now drilled three treys in back-to-back appearances. He also provided an unexpected boost on the opposite end, recording a season-high three blocks. The rookie continues to show that he's gaining confidence at the NBA level, scoring in double figures in six of his last seven games.
Nov 30, 2025
Scores 19 in loss
Bailey recorded 19 points, two rebounds and an assist in 31 minutes during Sunday's 129-101 loss to the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Bailey was a bright spot for Utah in Sunday's one-sided loss to Houston, logging a team-high 19 points on solid efficiency. The fifth overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft seems to be finding his footing at the next level, as he has scored in double-figures in nine of his last 11 games after failing to do so in his first eight appearances.
Nov 29, 2025
Off report for Sunday
Bailey (knee) isn't listed on Utah's injury report for Sunday's game against the Rockets, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey exited Friday's win over the Kings and didn't return due to a right knee contusion, though he's set to play Sunday. Over his last five outings, the rookie first-rounder has averaged 12.8 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.4 steals in 24.4 minutes per game.
Nov 28, 2025
Won't return Friday
Bailey won't return to Friday's game against the Kings due to a right knee contusion.
ANALYSIS
Bailey was limited to 17 minutes Friday and posted five points (2-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and a steal. The rookie has settled in nicely as a starter for the Jazz in recent weeks, and he should be considered questionable to play Sunday against the Rockets until the Jazz release an update on his condition in the coming hours.
Nov 25, 2025
Ties season scoring high
Bailey closed Monday's 134-117 loss to the Warriors with 21 points (8-15 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 29 minutes.
ANALYSIS
It's the third time in eight games since moving into the starting five that Bailey has scored at least 20 points, and Monday's output tied his career high. The fifth overall pick in the 2025 Draft is finding his rhythm, averaging 14.4 points, 3.5 boards, 2.3 threes, 1.9 assists and 1.4 steals as a starter while shooting 52.3 percent from the floor.
Nov 22, 2025
Pops for 25 points in loss
Bailey finished Friday's 144-112 loss to the Thunder with 15 points (6-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt), two rebounds, three assists and three steals over 21 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Bailey's production has ramped up after fouling out during Sunday's narrow win over the Bulls. Aside from that outlier game, Bailey has performed well during his six-game stint with the first unit, averaging 14.0 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.5 steals over the span.
Nov 17, 2025
Fouls out, plays 10 minutes
Bailey produced five points (2-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt), one rebound and one block across 10 minutes before fouling out of Sunday's 150-147 double-overtime win over Chicago.
ANALYSIS
Bailey struggled with foul trouble all game long and was limited to only 10 minutes. The rookie has had some notable performances, but for the most part, he's struggled to adapt to the pace of the NBA -- even if his scoring prowess is beyond any doubt. Bailey is very valuable in dynasty formats due to his long-term upside, but his value in standard formats isn't that high. Several other first-year players are performing better than the former Rutgers star.
Nov 14, 2025
Scores 21 points with two steals
Bailey had 21 points (8-13 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-3 FT), five rebounds, three assists and two steals in 32 minutes during Thursday's 132-122 loss to the Hawks.
ANALYSIS
Bailey did a nice job of picking his spots in the offense, and he continues to improve with each game. He's been trending up over the past four, posting averages of 15.8 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 2.5 triples and 1.5 steals per contest.
Nov 12, 2025
Thrives in starting role
Bailey notched 20 points (7-13 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 152-128 victory over Indiana.
ANALYSIS
Bailey looked poised and much more comfortable in his second start of the season. The promising rookie will likely get several opportunities with the first unit after a promising start to his NBA career. The Oregon product had now rattled off three consecutive double-digit performances, and should receive consideration in all fantasy formats moving forward.
Nov 11, 2025
Scores 10 in first start
Bailey closed with 10 points (4-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, three steals and two assists in 28 minutes during Monday's 120-113 loss to Minnesota.
ANALYSIS
Bailey made his first career start Monday, logging a career-high 28 minutes while contributing on the glass and showing activity on defense, though he went without a made three-pointer. Through 10 regular-season appearances, the No. 5 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft is averaging 6.3 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 19.3 minutes per game. Bailey should continue to hold a key role in Utah's rotation, though it's unclear whether he'll remain in the starting lineup or if Isaiah Collier will reclaim that spot.
Nov 10, 2025
Drawing first NBA start
Bailey is starting Monday's game against the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Bailey will enter the starting lineup Monday as the Jazz elect to shake up the starting five and bump Isaiah Collier to a bench role. Bailey hasn't been overly impressive off the bench, averaging 7.4 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.6 assists in his last five appearances, but he should have a chance to be more involved Monday night.
Nov 8, 2025
Scores season-high 12 points Friday
Bailey finished with 12 points (4-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal in 24 minutes during Friday's 137-97 loss to Minnesota.
ANALYSIS
Despite being a highly-touted prospect out of college, Bailey has yet to start a game at the NBA level this season. This 12-point output was a season-high mark for him, and the rookie out of Rutgers has been struggling to adjust to life at the next level. Through nine games, Bailey is putting up 5.9 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game.
Nov 4, 2025
Makes two field goals in win
Bailey produced four points (2-4 FG) and two rebounds in 18 minutes during Monday's 105-103 victory over the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Bailey has been restricted to under 25 minutes in every game to start the season and has only eclipsed 20 minutes twice, which may partly account for the lack of production from the 2025 fifth overall pick. It appears the illness he has is limiting his ability to contribute, so once he is able to fully recover he should be getting more opportunities to see the floor for longer.
Oct 30, 2025
Drops eight loss
Bailey had eight points (3-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one block in 15 minutes during Wednesday's 136-134 loss to the Trail Blazers.
ANALYSIS
While Bailey has not played much in the first four games of the season, averaging 15.5 minutes, he notched eight points, which is a high in his very young career. Bailey is still taking time to find his rhythm after recovering from an illness, and it appears he may be restricted to 15-20 minutes a night until he feels better.
Oct 22, 2025
On minutes limit, coming off bench
Bailey will come off the bench and be limited to 15 minutes due to illness, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
When at full health, Bailey is anticipated to serve as Utah's starting shooting guard. However, the rookie is dealing with an illness, and he'll face significant restrictions Wednesday. Bailey will come off the bench and play merely 15 minutes. Svi Mykhailiuk will draw the start in Bailey's place.
Oct 22, 2025
Available to play
Bailey (illness) is available to play Wednesday against the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
Bailey was previously listed as questionable on the injury report, but the rookie is now set to make his official NBA debut. He was battling some knee tendinitis during the preseason, so it will be interesting to see how many minutes he's allotted.
Oct 21, 2025
Officially questionable for opener
Bailey (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey is in danger of missing Utah's regular-season opener while dealing with the flu. He also sat out Thursday's preseason win over Portland due to tendinitis in both knees. If the rookie is unable to suit up Wednesday, Brice Sensabaugh, Cody Williams and Svi Mykhailiuk are candidates for an uptick in minutes.
Oct 21, 2025
Dealing with illness
Bailey could miss Opening Night against the Clippers on Wednesday due to the flu, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey, who is currently battling tendinitis in both knees, appears very iffy to suit up. The Jazz are known for being overly cautious, and it sounds like the rookie is going to be held out. Fantasy managers can expect some clarity when the Jazz releases their official injury report Tuesday evening. If Bailey sits out, guys like Brice Sensabaugh, Taylor Hendricks and Cody Williams could see increased roles.
Oct 16, 2025
Out Thursday
Bailey (knee) won't play in Thursday's preseason finale against Portland, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey is out with bilateral knee tendinopathy. As a result, the rookie swingman can be considered day-to-day ahead of Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Clippers.
Oct 13, 2025
Dealing with knee soreness
Bailey exited Monday's 114-101 preseason loss to the Mavericks in the second quarter and did not return due to knee soreness, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey logged 11 minutes before exiting the game, finishing with three points (1-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt), one rebound and one assist. The rookie's status will be worth monitoring ahead of Thursday's preseason finale against the Trail Blazers.
Oct 10, 2025
Nears double-double in loss
Bailey finished with 20 points (8-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and two steals across 39 minutes during Friday's 134-130 preseason loss to the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
Bailey followed up an impressive preseason debut with another solid all-around performance. The rookie guard is showing a lot of promise, which is a good sign for a Jazz squad that desperately needs to turn things around heading into the 2025-26 campaign.
Oct 8, 2025
Dazzles in preseason opener
Bailey generated 25 points (11-16 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block over 31 minutes of Wednesday's 140-127 preseason loss to Houston.
ANALYSIS
With several starters sitting out for Utah, Bailey assumed a lead role offensively. He took a team-high 16 shots and knocked down 68.8 percent of his attempts en route to a game-high 25 points. The rookie also made an impact on the defensive end, racking up three combined steals-plus-blocks. Bailey committed two turnovers. While he likely won't be asked to do this much offensively when Lauri Markkanen (wrist) is healthy, it was a truly impressive preseason debut.
Oct 5, 2025
Back in action
Bailey (hip) is participating in practice ahead of Wednesday's preseason game against the Rockets, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey missed time during Summer League due to a hip injury. However, he appears to be healthy heading into the preseason.
Jul 18, 2025
Out again Friday
Bailey (hip) will not play in Friday's Summer League contest against the Bulls, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Right hip soreness will cost Bailey a fifth consecutive game. It's understandable that the Jazz are being cautious with the No. 5 overall pick in these exhibitions.
Jul 16, 2025
Remaining sidelined vs. Wizards
Bailey (hip) is out for Wednesday's Summer League game against the Wizards, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Right hip soreness will cost Bailey a fourth consecutive game. It's possible that the rookie first-rounder won't play again in the Summer League, as the Jazz figure to take a cautious approach this summer. Kyle Filipowski (rest) has been shut down, so Cody Williams should take on more usage in the frontcourt.
Jul 14, 2025
Won't play Monday
Bailey (hip) has been ruled out for Monday's Summer League matchup against the Spurs, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey was initially questionable for Monday's game but will ultimately miss his fourth consecutive contest this summer due to right hip soreness. He'll join Walter Clayton (hamstring) and RJ Luis (knee) on the sideline, with their next opportunity to feature coming Wednesday against the Wizards.
Jul 14, 2025
Questionable for Monday
Bailey (hip) is questionable for Monday's Summer League game against the Spurs, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.
ANALYSIS
The rookie first-rounder has a chance to end a three-game absence due to right hip soreness. With RJ Luis (knee) and Walter Clayton (hamstring) out, Bailey would likely play a featured role if he's available Monday.
Jul 13, 2025
Won't suit up Sunday
Bailey (hip) won't play in Sunday's Summer League game against the Warriors, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey will remain sidelined due to right hip soreness and miss his third consecutive game this summer. Walter Clayton (hamstring) and RJ Luis (knee) have also been ruled out, with their next chance to suit up coming Monday against the Spurs.
Jul 11, 2025
Out again Friday
Bailey has been ruled out for Friday's Summer League game against the Hornets, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey missed both chances to suit up during the Salt Lake Summer League and will remain sidelined as the action shifts to Las Vegas. John Tonje (ankle) and RJ Luis (knee) will also be sidelined, and their next chance to suit up will come Sunday against the Warriors.
Jul 8, 2025
Out Tuesday
Bailey won't play in Tuesday's Summer League game against the Thunder due to right groin soreness, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey will miss the second night of the team's back-to-back set due to the groin issue. His next chance to play will come Friday against the Hornets. Across two Summer League appearances, Bailey has totaled 26 points, 14 rebounds and four assists in 60 minutes.
Jul 8, 2025
Productive in Summer League win
Bailey logged 18 points (7-14 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds and three assists across 35 minutes in Monday's 112-111 Summer League win over the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
The Rutgers product delivered a bounce-back performance after struggling with efficiency in Saturday's win over the 76ers. The No. 5 overall pick in the 2025 Draft, Bailey tied with Cody Williams as Utah's second-leading scorer behind Brice Sensabaugh (37 points). Across two Summer League appearances, Bailey has totaled 26 points, 14 rebounds and four assists in 60 minutes.
Jul 5, 2025
Makes debut for Jazz
Bailey recorded eight points (3-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 25 minutes of Saturday's 93-89 Summer League win over the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
Bailey certainly had an interesting draft experience to say the least due to reports about him only willing to play for certain NBA teams, but despite a slight logistical hiccup that saw him arrive to Summer League training camp late, most reports coming out of Utah suggests that the No. 5 overall pick is happy to be with his new team. He lands in an ideal situation for fantasy appeal with the Jazz, as the franchise is in the early stages of a rebuild. Playing time could be plentiful as a result.
Jun 27, 2025
Expected to report to team Saturday
Bailey has been in contact with the Jazz and will be in Utah with his family Saturday, Jonathan Givony of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Jazz selected Bailey with the No. 5 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft. The 18-year-old was one of the most controversial players in the draft after he canceled pre-draft workouts with Utah, Charlotte and Philadelphia. However, despite declining an invitation from the Jazz, he appears to have become content with playing for the franchise. The talented scorer averaged 17.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.3 blocks per game with Rutgers during the 2024-25 campaign.
Jun 25, 2025
Heading to Utah
Bailey was selected by the Jazz with the No. 5 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft.
ANALYSIS
Bailey played for Rutgers during the 2024-25 season and posted outstanding numbers, averaging 17.6 points, 7.2 boards, 1.3 assists, 1.3 blocks and 1.0 steals over 30 games while featuring alongside Dylan Harper, who went second overall to the Spurs. Bailey should immediately be a long-term core piece for Utah, and his ability to score at will should give the Jazz a huge boost on offense after they finished last season with the worst record in the NBA. Bailey figures to be a key contributor for Utah from the early stages of his rookie campaign, regardless of whether he plays as a shooting guard or small forward.
