Walker Kessler Out on Sunday
Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (shoulder) has been listed as out for Sunday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. The Jazz begin a back-to-back on Sunday, and it looks like the team wants to give Kessler some time off to manage a shoulder injury, which has bothered him since preseason. Kessler's absence will provide an opportunity for Jusuf Nurkic to join the starting lineup. Coming off the bench, Nurkic has posted 7.8 points and 7.6 rebounds per game with the Jazz this season. As a starter, he will certainly be a double-double threat. Kyle Filipowski and Taylor Hendricks could also see more time on the court on Sunday without Kessler.
