The Jazz have pretty much all starter level big men hurt, Nurkic, JJJ, and Markkanen are out. The Jazz have nothing to tank for this season.

JJJ hurt the right knee. He had surgery on the left towards the end of last season.

Yeah. It had to have been late, too. He put up 47 and played in OT.

Most are just hurt until after Christmas. It's like clockwork.

OKC had 2nd most injury games missed last season. On pace to have more this year

Wed night game @ Mavs:

Jalen Williams (ankle fracture) is out for season

Cason Wallace (shoulder labral tear) is out for season

Chet Holmgren (patellar tendinitis) is out

Alex Caruso (ankle sprain) is out

Ajay Mitchell (ankle sprain) is questionable

Nikola Topic (back surgery) is out 3rd year player been out most of his NBA time other than some blow out minutes last year late

Thomas Sorber (knee surgery) is out 2nd year has not played a reg season game as pro yet

Its crazy right now. Teams only have 15 reg contract spots plus 3 two-way spots

Probably a lot more load management is just what the doctor ordered to increase fan interest.

He’s had a lingering knee issue from last year. Decided to try to rest in the offseason and see if he could avoid surgery.

Apparently that didn’t work. It wasn’t actually anything from last night

The pelicans need to start getting injured if they expect to be at the top of the list this year. It’s like the only thing they’re good at

Zion took out Missi's knee and the only surprise was that it didn't hurt both of them.

We still got Steph Curry. Thinking a 40 piece is coming, or even a 50 piece. Excite!
