Rudy Gay Nearing Return As Practice Ramps Up

When Utah GM Justin Zanik spoke with the media last week, he provided an update regarding the health of offseason addition Rudy Gay.

According to Zanik, Gay, who is recovering from right heel surgery, was currently participating in "controlled court work."

"We haven't had practice so we're, you know, doing this normal routine to play with him on ramping up contact. … Things are going well," Zanik said. "It's a progression, and he's in the middle of that. Now that we are home for 10 days, I think it's a great period where, even if we aren't having practice, we are having an environment where we can set stuff up for 2-on-2, 3-on-3, 4-on-4, and then integrate fully into practice.
