Following an impressive rookie season, Kessler was seen as a slam dunk in drafts last season, with many going as high as the third round to secure his services. Sadly, he failed to live up to the hype, replicating what he did during the 2023-24 campaign with reduced efficiency. Now the dust has settled, it wasn't all doom and gloom for managers. Kessler averaged 2.4 blocks and 7.5 rebounds in 23.3 minutes per game and produced in the appropriate categories. Based on what we saw last season, it's hard to project what Kessler's role might look like in 2024-25. The Jazz are really no closer to becoming a contender, so they may move some contracts before the season is done. If the path to minutes becomes clearer, Kessler could finally get the opportunity we thought was due last season. As one of the elite rim protectors in the league, his fantasy floor feels relatively safe around the top 100. If he can get closer to 26 minutes per night, early or late in the season, that rank could push closer to the top 50.
