3 years agoUtah Jazz center Rudy Gobert (calf) and point guard Mike Conley (knee, rest) have been ruled out for Monday's game vs. the Suns. Gobert has recently battled an ankle ailment but he will now be sidelined due to a strained left calf. Conley's absence comes as a form of load management after playing 29 minutes Sunday. Without the league's leading rebounder in the mix, Hassan Whiteside is likely to see a significant jump in both time on the floor and usage, making him a hot commodity in the DFS market, particularly during the four-game slate. Conley's absence (along with that of Donovan Mitchell) should funnel more intrigue toward Jordan Clarkson, although Jared Butler could be a sneaky upside DFS option in his own right. Gobert's next chance to return comes Wednesday in a rematch with Phoenix, a matchup Conley should have the green light for.--Jesse Borek
