What happened
The Jazz said Lauri Markkanen will miss at least a month after two non-displaced fractures were found in his right hand.
Utah said the injury happened in Friday's game against Dallas, and Markkanen had already sat out the past two games with a wrist sprain.
His absence likely keeps Utah shorthanded at forward while the team continues a long losing streak, but a return timeline remains uncertain until the four-week recheck.
