Utah Jazz: Golden State game has big implications for Jazz

Bogut was traded from Milwaukee last March for three players, including Monta Ellis. He’s been out most of the season with an ankle injury. After playing the first four games, he returned to the lineup on Jan. 28, but the Warriors are just 4-5 since then, 3-3 in games he has played in. Bogut hasn’t been playing in the second half of back-to-backs, but should be ready Tuesday night.

The Warriors are led by Stephen Curry and David Lee, who average 21.0 and 19.0 points, respectively. The other starters, besides Bogut, are second-year player Klay Thompson (16.4 ppg) and rookie Harrison Barnes (9.3 ppg).

After Tuesday’s game, the Jazz have another short break before playing the L.A. Clippers in Los Angeles on Saturday night.
