3 years agoUtah Jazz power forward Royce O'Neale (foot/ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against New Orleans due to a sprained right foot/ankle. O'Neale's absence will be his first of the year, opening the door for Rudy Gay and Eric Paschall to see elevated minutes totals. How Utah replaces O'Neale's defensive contributions remains to be seen, but Bojan Bogdanovic could be involved beyond the arc more as well. Known for contributions across the stat sheet, O'Neale is a fringe season-long fantasy asset when healthy primarily due to attempting just 6.1 field goals per outing. His next chance at suiting up comes Monday vs. the Trail Blazers.--Jesse Borek
