"The Utah Jazz training staff might be putting in for some serious overtime — or at least be deserving of a bonus for extra hours.
Seven players are on the current injury report, and their availability for tonight's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves mostly remains up in the air.
"I'm concerned about it," Jazz coach Tyrone Corbin said of the team's injury situation. "We need bodies and we need guys."
The good news is that eight players are healthy — or at least have nicks and dings that aren't quite injury-report worthy.
It could also be considered a positive sign that Mehmet Okur (strained lower back) is the only player who has been ruled out of participating in tonight's home game (positive for the team, not Memo, mind you).
That means six Jazz players are game-time decisions tonight when Utah tries to rectify last week's "embarrassing" 122-101 thumping at the Target Center.
Devin Harris (strained right hamstring), Gordon Hayward (sprained left forefoot) and Ronnie Price (sprained right big toe) each went through Tuesday's practice and could play.
Francisco Elson participated in part of Tuesday's workout and might also play for the first time in weeks.
Paul Millsap (left patellar tendinitis) Raja Bell (sprained right fifth toe) both sat out of practice but have not been ruled out of action."
