According to Chris Haynes of NBA TV, Utah Jazz center Jusuf Nurkic (foot) will miss at least four weeks after suffering a partial plantar plate tear in the second toe of his right foot. The 32-year-old big man was projected to open the season as Utah's starting center but will now miss the start of the regular season. In his absence, Jaren Jackson Jr. could see additional minutes at center, while Mo Bamba and Jaxson Hayes may also take on expanded frontcourt roles.
