Jamaal Tinsley said he thinks he can play 3-4 more years in the NBA.
Thanks to the Mo Williams injury, Tinsley was forced to start 32 games for the Jazz this season. He averaged just 4.8 points, 5.4 assists and 2.2 rebounds while shooting 40.3 percent from the field. At age 35, Tinsely is nothing more than a third point guard. Apr 19 - 5:17 PM

Date:

Jamaal Tinsley had three points and three assists in seven minutes Friday night.

Tinsley had been dealing with a wrist injury and was spotted wearing a cast at shootaround Friday. He has no value in his limited role.
Apr 13 - 11:53 AM

Jamaal Tinsley (wrist) is expected to play on Friday.

Tinsley was sporting a "huge cast" on his left wrist at shootaround, but it's apparently just for precautionary reasons.
Apr 12 - 1:08 PM

Jamaal Tinsley is dealing with a sore wrist, but he's expected to be alright for Friday's game against Minnesota.

Tinsley doesn't have a major role on this Jazz team and whether or not he plays has no fantasy impact.
Apr 11 - 12:16 PM

Jamaal Tinsley (bruised back) logged 15 minutes off Utah's bench vs. the Warriors, scoring six points on 2-of-3 shooting from downtown.

He also had two assists and two steals, giving his team a nice lift while Mo Williams got a breather, but he's irrelevant in standard leagues.
Apr 7 - 10:50 PM

Jamaal Tinsley (back) is probable to play Sunday night against the Warriors.

Tinsley left Friday's game with a back issue and apparently had a big ice wrap around his midsection at practice Saturday. At 35 years old, it's not a surprise that Tinsley's body is sore but he should still be able to play Sunday night. Tinsley has no fantasy value barring injury.
Apr 6 - 1:24 PM

Jamaal Tinsley is dealing with a back issue in Friday's game and he will not return.

He's 35 years old and it's no surprise that he's having back problems. Tinsley played just five minutes on Wednesday and proved he has no value while Mo Williams is healthy.
Apr 5 - 11:15 PM

Jamaal Tinsley (illness) was available on Saturday but he did not leave Utah's bench.

Tinsley did nothing with the starting PG job while Mo Williams was sidelined, and it's anyone's guess if he'll rejoin the new-look Jazz rotation. We're taking him off the injury report.
Mar 17 - 9:38 AM

Jamaal Tinsley, who has missed the last two games, is probable to play on Saturday.

Tinsley's minutes aren't guaranteed, and he's not producing off the bench to warrant attention in fantasy leagues.
Mar 15 - 12:08 PM

Jamaal Tinsley (illness) will not travel to Oklahoma City for Wednesday's game against the Thunder.

With Mo Williams back in action, Tinsley's minutes have become inconsistent and he warrants no attention in fantasy leagues.
Mar 12 - 11:54 AM

Jamaal Tinsley (illness) will not play against the Pistons on Monday.

He isn't needed now that Mo Williams is back and Tinsley really struggled as the team's starter in Mo's absence. Tinsley shot 30 percent from the field in his previous six games and has no fantasy value.
Mar 11 - 7:55 PM

Jamaal Tinsley is sick and is questionable to play on Monday.

Tinsley is not a factor with Mo Williams back in the picture.
Mar 11 - 12:30 PM

Jamaal Tinsley (personal) will rejoin the Jazz for Wednesday morning's shootaround.

Tinsley has missed three of the last four games, but he'll suit up on Wednesday against the Cavs. His exact role is uncertain with Mo Williams (thumb) close to a return and Earl Watson scuffling. We wouldn't waste a pickup on Tinsley.
Mar 5 - 6:41 PM

Jamaal Tinsley was excused from the Jazz for personal reasons, meaning he will not play on Monday, and he's expected to rejoin the team on Wednesday in Cleveland.

Tinsley was the starter when Mo Williams (thumb) first went down, but he's been relegated to a non-role and is not on the fantasy radar.
Mar 4 - 1:46 PM

Jamaal Tinsley (illness) played on Monday, scoring three points on 1-of-7 shooting with five rebounds, seven assists, and one steal in 31 minutes.

Tinsley's one field goal made was a 3-point shot, and this is a pretty standard line for the veteran PG.
