It’s been a rough go on the injury front all season long and that trouble continued once again last night. As I wrote earlier today, the Utah Jazz lost both Rudy Gobert and Derrick Favors to injury in last night’s win over the Boston Celtics with unfortunate incidents happening mere minutes apart. Furthermore, as the J-Notes’ very own Zack Padmore reported today, Gobert has been diagnosed with a sprained PCL and a bone bruise in his tibia which is expected to keep him sidelined for about a month.
That’s unfortunate to be sure, especially with Utah’s starting power forward/backup center extraordinaire Derrick Favors ailing as well.
