Chicago Bulls' star Zach LaVine will not play against the Utah Jazz due to a right adductor strain. Averaging 22.7 points in the season, LaVine's injury occurred during a recent game against the Brooklyn Nets, where he scored 21 points.
Coach Billy Donovan noted that LaVine's condition worsened over the weekend, leading to the decision to rest him to prevent further complications. LaVine is currently considered day-to-day.
Meanwhile, the Jazz continue to struggle, remaining winless at 0-6 and missing key player Lauri Markkanen due to back spasms.
