Timberwolves vs. Jazz
Lauri Markkanen said he was “hoping” to play Monday as the Jazz host the Timberwolves.
Markkanen has missed the team’s last six games due to a quad bruise suffered against the Miami Heat on March 2.
The Jazz are 2-4 in their last six outings without Markkanen, including Saturday’s 119-100 loss to the Timberwolves.

Jazz Will Have Fuller Roster Against Timberwolves
With Markkanen appears likely to make his return, the Jazz will feature a more complete roster against the Timberwolves than they have in either of their last two contests.
John Collins is not listed on the team’s injury report after sitting out Saturday’s game due to rest.
Kris Dunn missed Friday’s win over the Atlanta Hawks also due to rest.
Jordan Clarkson remains out for the Jazz due to a groin injury.
Not deja vu, just facing the Wolves again ⏪
