Utah Jazz Get Early Visit From the Injury Bug
The Utah Jazz’s promising outlook for 2016-17 hit a minor roadblock as Gordon Hayward suffered an injury that could have him sidelined for up to six weeks.
So much hype. So much excitement. So much promise. After narrowly missing the playoffs last season, largely due to an onslaught of injuries, everything seemed to be going so smoothly for the Utah Jazz heading into 2016-17.
Perhaps a little too smoothly…
After months of anticipation for a healthy core heading into the season, the Utah Jazz have suddenly hit a roadblock. It was reported Friday that Gordon Hayward suffered a broken and dislocated finger in his left hand and will likely be sidelined for six weeks.
