Joining starting five
Konchar is in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis
Konchar will enter the starting five with Lauri Markkanen (hip) remaining sidelined. Konchar contributed across the board in his last start Feb. 26 against the Pelicans, as he finished with four points, five rebounds, one assist, five steals and two blocks in 26 minutes.

Limited minutes in loss
Konchar amassed three points (1-3 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two rebounds and two steals in 15 minutes during Saturday's 115-105 loss to the Pelicans.
Analysis
Konchar not only moved back to the bench, but he also logged just 15 minutes, the fewest he has played since arriving in Utah. While his role is seemingly going to shift on a nightly basis, he did manage to rack up another two steals, bringing his total steals to 17 in his past five games. Given the uncertainty, managers should view him as nothing more than a schedule-based streaming consideration.

Not starting vs. New Orleans
Konchar won't start against the Pelicans on Saturday.
