Tobias Harris out for Pistons, just about everyone out for the Jazz
The Utah Jazz were already going to be underdogs against the surging Detroit Pistons , and that was before the team ruled out nearly every significant player in their lineup. Lauri Markkanen, the Jazz’s best player is out. John Collins is out. Jordan Clarkson is out. Taylor Hendricks is out. The Pistons will not be 100% healthy. Jaden Ivey, of course, remains out. Starting power forward Tobias Harris will also miss the game due to personal reasons. Isaiah Stewart is also listed on the injury report (lower back contusion), but he looks like he is going to give it a go. The line has drifted into double digits in favor of the Pistons, and while this team has a penchant for making games far more interesting than they should be, let’s hope that they can make it an early night against the depleted Utah team.
