Mike Conley Upgraded to Probable Ahead of Friday’s Meeting With Thunder

It looks like the injury-plagued Utah Jazz is starting to get healthy at the right time. Starting guard, Mike Conley is trending toward playing on Friday night as the Jazz make their way to Oklahoma City.

Conley hasn’t played since April 26 against the Timberwolves and missed the past nine games with a right hamstring issue. After missing that kind of time and with just two regular-season games left until the playoffs, it’s highly likely Conley will have some kind of minutes restriction. The Jazz is still trying to fight off the Phoenix Suns to clinch the top seed in the NBA, so they will certainly be trying to win over the lowly Thunder, but an early blowout could mean a short night for Utah’s assist leader.
