DeMarre Carroll is hoping to re-sign with the Jazz as an unrestricted free agent.
"The Junkyard Dog don’t want to go anywhere because the dog pound is here," he said. "I'm a Utah Jazz until they don't want me." Carroll shouldn't have a shortage of interested suitors as he's established a reputation as a high-energy bench player. Apr 19 - 10:05 AM

DeMarre Carroll - F - Jazz

DeMarre Carroll fell out of the Jazz rotation on Saturday, going from the starting lineup to a DNP-CD.

Tyrone Corbin abruptly started Gordon Hayward to jumpstart the offense, and it paid off with a victory. Carroll could easily rejoin the rotation but there's no use holding onto him in fantasy leagues.

DeMarre Carroll - F - Jazz

DeMarre Carroll, who started on Wednesday, is expected to stick in the starting lineup for the time being.

"Any guy that brings energy and has the intangibles, he can play with any group," Mo Williams said. Al Jefferson added that Carroll's move to the starting lineup "will pick up our energy a little bit because he's very active." Carroll played just 14 minutes on Wednesday and will see inconsistent minutes despite being in a starter's role.

DeMarre Carroll - F - Jazz

DeMarre Carroll started for the Jazz on Wednesday, but played just 14 minutes and scored four points on 2-of-6 shooting.

Marvin Williams was benched and also played just 14 minutes, and the only thing this lineup change means to us is that Hayward is going to be cleared for more minutes going forward. The Jazz no longer have to worry about making sure Marvin gets solid minutes, and Carroll is a token starter in order to keep Hayward in his bench role. But Hayward played 34 minutes tonight and we'll be surprised if he plays less than that in many games going forward.

DeMarre Carroll - F - Jazz

DeMarre Carroll will get the start Wednesday night against the Cavs.

Carroll's insertion into the starting lineup means Marvin Williams officially heads to the bench. Williams was already boasting minimal fantasy value, but any reduction in minutes should pretty much seal his fantasy fate. Carroll, meanwhile, is coming off 19- and 13-point performances and could be a decent pickup in deeper formats.

DeMarre Carroll - F - Jazz

DeMarre Carroll (knee) returned to action on Friday and scored a career-high 19 points on 7-of-10 shooting with three rebounds, three steals and one block in 20 minutes.

Carroll has shown low-end value in 14-16 team leagues over the last few weeks, but in a limited role and coming off a knee injury owners can probably do better.

DeMarre Carroll - F - Jazz

DeMarre Carroll has been diagnosed with a left knee bone bruise and patellar tendinitis, and he's being listed as a game-time decision on Friday.

It would be somewhat surprising if Carroll played given that he's got a bone bruise and patellar tendinitis, but he has carved out a reputation of playing through pain. If Carroll does play, he'd be doing so at less than 100 percent health.

DeMarre Carroll - F - Jazz

DeMarre Carroll had eight points in 21 minutes Wednesday, but suffered a left knee injury and will have an MRI.

He is now very iffy for Friday's game against the Bobcats, which should mean more playing time for Gordon Hayward, if Carroll is out.

DeMarre Carroll - F - Jazz

DeMarre Carroll has been playing well with Gordon Hayward sidelined and had 13 points, three rebounds, one assist, three steals and two 3-pointers on 3-of-6 shooting in 26 minutes Tuesday.

He is averaging 10.4 points and 3.6 rebounds over his last five games, but tonight was his first game in that stretch with a steal or 3-pointer. Hayward will miss one more game prior to the break, meaning Carroll might be relevant for one more game.

DeMarre Carroll - F - Jazz

DeMarre Carroll started for injured Marvin Williams (knee) and had 10 points, six rebounds and two 3-pointers in 28 minutes.

Carroll may have some decent games like this one as long as he's starting for Marvin, but Gordon Hayward (17 points, four 3-pointers) is the hot pick up in Utah right now. Hayward has hit double figures in scoring in seven straight, and is averaging 17 points and 2.6 3-pointers over his last five.

DeMarre Carroll - F - Jazz

DeMarre Carroll will start in place of Marvin Williams (knee) on Wednesday.

Carroll is averaging 4.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, 0.8 blocks and 1.0 steals as a starter this season (four games), so there is some low-end appeal here for owners in deeper formats.

DeMarre Carroll - F - Jazz

DeMarre Carroll scored six points and grabbed eight rebounds in a start at SF in place of Marvin Williams (knee) on Sunday.

Carroll chipped in one 3-pointer and one steal without any turnovers, typical of his understated play. It's unclear whether Marvin could miss more games, but if he's out for an extended period Carroll would be worth a long look.

DeMarre Carroll - F - Jazz

DeMarre Carroll had eight points, five rebounds and two steals in 21 minutes off Utah's bench on Saturday.

This unassuming line is exactly what's worth highlighting -- despite averaging just 21 minutes per game over the past two weeks, Carroll is returning top-100 value in nine-cat leagues on the strength of solid percentages, negligible TOs, and a sneaky 0.7 threes, 1.3 steals and 0.6 blocks. Keep him in mind in deeper leagues, and all fantasy owners should watch him in case his role increases.

DeMarre Carroll - F - Jazz

DeMarre Carroll scored 11 points on 4-of-6 shooting (including three treys) with eight rebounds, two assists, one steal, and two blocks in the Jazz's 32-point win over the Raptors on Friday.

Carroll has impressed since arriving in Utah, but has always been an empty calorie guy in the fantasy sense until recently. Over the last two weeks he has been a late-round producer, especially so in 8-cat leagues where his 0.4 turnover per game mark over that span has been real nice. He's going to have a hard time keeping that up in a bench role, but with production like that owners shouldn't simply ignore him because he is a lesser-known name.

DeMarre Carroll - F - Jazz

Tyrone Corbin praised DeMarre Carroll's commitment to defense.

"DeMarre is a defensive-minded guy who wants to step up and take the challenge of playing the guys who’s going to have the ball in his hands," Corbin said. Carroll has started three straight games with Marvin Williams (concussion) sidelined, but he's the definition of a hustle guy off the bench and owners can do better in standard formats.
