Latest Fantasy Rumors
Gets ROY consideration
Kessler came in third in voting for the 2022-23 Kia NBA Rookie of the Year Award, Tony East of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Kessler placed third behind Paolo Banchero and Jalen Williams. After being drafted 22nd overall and traded from Minnesota to Utah in the Rudy Gobert deal, Kessler had an impressive rookie campaign. Despite starting in only 40 of his 72 appearances, he averaged 9.2 points, 8.4 rebounds and 2.3 blocks in 23.0 minutes. His rebounding and block numbers ranked second and first, respectively, among all rookies. Kessler figures to be a full-time starter in 2023-24 and should continue to improve his production.

2022 Fantasy Outlook
After initially being drafted by the Timberwolves, Kessler was abruptly traded to Utah as part of the Rudy Gobert deal. Landing with the Jazz, Kessler actually finds himself in what could be a favorable spot as the potential starting center. Coming out of college, Kessler was regarded as arguably the best rim protector in the draft, averaging 4.6 swats in just over 25 minutes per game last year at Auburn. His skillset could translate quite well into fantasy, especially if the Jazz opts to roll with him as their primary option. Currently, he will be battling Udoka Azubuike, Kelly Olynyk, Cody Zeller for center minutes heading into camp. Kessler is intriguing as a standard-league flier for fantasy managers who need help in that category at the end of drafts. However, he'll likely be a more practical draft pick in deeper formats.
