SALT LAKE CITY -- Staying above water has become a challenge for the Utah Jazz. Injuries decimated the roster almost to the breaking point this season.
For Utah, the latest attack from the injury bug meant that only one regular starter, Rudy Gobert, was not sidelined during the team's 106-99 loss to Golden State on Thursday night. Both Gordon Hayward (finger) and Rodney Hood (hamstring) sat out against the Warriors after suffering injuries against Phoenix on Tuesday.
George Hill (toe) and Derrick Favors (knee) have already missed several games in a row with serious injuries and Alec Burks (ankle) has yet to play a minute this season.
