Jazz's Lauri Markkanen: Ruled out for Saturday

Markkanen has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Rockets for right quadricep contusion injury maintenance.

Markkanen will be held out of Saturday's contest after logging 36 minutes in Thursday's loss to the Mavericks. With Jordan Clarkson (groin) also out, look for Brice Sensabaugh and Johnny Juzang to absorb most of the minutes at small forward. Markkanen should be cleared to suit up for Utah's upcoming matchup with Dallas on Monday.
