The Utah Jazz limped over the quarter-season mark having lost four of its last five games thanks to a brutal road tip. Adding insult to injury, attrition is starting to set in as Rudy Gobert and Mike Conley, the latter of whom is out today against the Los Angeles Lakers, have suffered minor injuries keeping them out of key games.
On a slightly related note, the guys filling in when starters go down, or even when they just need a spell on the bench to catch their breathe, aren’t exactly playing up to par.
