Johnny Juzang

Clarkson missed their last game, which resulted in extra minutes for Isaiah Collier, Brice Sensabaugh and Johnny Juzang. None of them are safe options, but they should all have a role if Clarkson remains out. Collier had six assists in 24 minutes, while Bruce Sensabaugh scored 18 in 22 minutes on Thursday.

Clarkson was downgraded to doubtful earlier in the day and has now officially been ruled out. Isaiah Collier and Johnny Juzang should take on larger roles off the bench in place of Clarkson, though neither player should be seen as an appealing option. Collin Sexton and Keyonte George should also play extra minutes.

Clarkson's appearance on the injury report is concerning, as he missed two games earlier this season due to a similar injury. If he cannot play on Thursday, fellow reserves Isaiah Collier and Johnny Juzang may absorb some of the available minutes, and starter Collin Sexton can also take some. Neither Collier nor Juzang needs to be rostered in most leagues.

George has not missed a game this season, but that could change on Saturday. The good news for Utah is that neither Collin Sexton nor Jordan Clarkson is on the initial injury report, and that could be the starting backcourt if George sits. Johnny Juzang and Patty Mills can absorb some of George's minutes, but neither will be worth the streaming risk.
