Bailey exited Sunday's Las Vegas Summer League loss to the Clippers with back spasms and did not return, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bailey only managed to make it through eight minutes before aggravating his back, and it's already been announced he will miss Monday's meeting with the Bulls. The Jazz will likely be extra cautious with Bailey's back issue during these exhibition games, so for now, he should be considered doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Spurs.

Bailey finished with 10 points (4-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, one steal and one block in 20 minutes of Sunday's 103-102 Salt Lake City Summer League win over the Hawks.
EDGE Analysis
This was Bailey's first look alongside Darryn Peterson, and it was immediately clear who the offense flowed through. Bailey is projected to come off the bench in his second season, and it's clear that he has a lot of work to do to move up fantasy draft boards.

Bailey will enter his second NBA season playing alongside franchise guard Darryn Peterson, who Utah took with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft.
EDGE Analysis
The pairing gives the Jazz a dynamic young offensive core, with Peterson's playmaking potentially creating easier scoring opportunities for Bailey and Keyonte George. While usage distribution remains uncertain, Bailey still projects as one of Utah's foundational building blocks. After the All-Star break, Bailey averaged 18.3 points, 4.9 boards and 2.0 dimes in 23 regular-season games.

Bailey accumulated 15 points (7-21 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 0-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block across 29 minutes during Sunday's 131-107 loss to the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Bailey endured a rough shooting performance in his final game of the 2025-26 season, but the rookie out of Rutgers showed a marked improvement as the campaign went on. He finishes his rookie with averages of 13.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game across 72 appearances, but those figures improve to 18.3 points, 4.9 boards and 2.0 dimes per game in 23 contests after the All-Star break. All things considered, it was a successful season for Bailey, who's expected to be a key player for the Jazz for years to come.
