Starting power forward Paul Millsap didn't play because of inflammation in his right knee, the third game he's missed in the past two weeks because of injuries. Friday was the first time the Jazz had been at full strength since December.
Millsap was re-evaluated on Sunday, and he remains day-to-day after an MRI revealed bruising of his right patella and quadriceps tendon.
"Before (Saturday), we had everybody back in the fold, so we're trying to find where we go from here with the group," Corbin said. "Mo's been out for a long time, so his rhythm is going to take a little bit for him to get back, and we're trying to integrate him back in.
"Al was out for couple of games, Paul goes down," the coach said. "We're back into scramble mode to figure out what's going to be best for us. We'll continue to work. We need everybody ready to go."

"I trust my guys. I believe in them," Corbin said. "I know they have the fight in them."
He is pleading for them so he doesn't have a mutiny on his hands and then he hopes he can keep his job.
It seems clear More..
Corbin has been too soft on guys not playing D. He also seems like he can not get the right play down the stretch which is totally his fault. Jerry could call plays with the worst of players and get things done. Someone needs to put on his big boy More..
I agree with the consensus here. The Jazz appear to be a potentially talented team mismanaged and headed nowhere.
