Chris Haynes: BREAKING: Utah Jazz starting center Jusuf Nurkic will undergo a surgical procedure on his nose Wednesday that will sideline him for the remainder of the season, league sources tell me.
Jazz center Jusuf Nurkic, in fact, believes that Markkanen deserves more recognition from the NBA, with the Bosnian big man lobbying for his teammate to make it to the All-Star Game. “Adam Silver do the right thing!! #AllStar,” Nurkic wrote on his official account on X (formerly Twitter).
Underdog NBA: Jusuf Nurkic (illness) questionable for Sunday.

Utah Jazz: UPDATED Jazz Injury Report: *OUT - Jusuf Nurkic (illness) *AVAILABLE - Kevin Love (left knee; contusion) *AVAILABLE - Lauri Markkanen (return to competition reconditioning)
Anthony Chiang: Per Jazz, Jusuf Nurkić (illness) available vs. Heat tonight.
Andy Larsen: Jusuf Nurkic has been downgraded to doubtful tomorrow vs. Heat due to illness… but Lauri Markkanen has been upgraded to questionable. Oh, and Kevin Love is out with a knee contusion.
What does Jusuf Nurkic think about his future in Utah? We asked him in Sunday’s practice. “I’m a Jazz for life, baby,” he started with a smile. Well, OK, that wasn’t his full thought. “I don’t know. I mean, I obviously love being here. It’s been a great experience so far, and hopefully we continue the journey for a long time. But you can’t really control a lot of things,” Nurkic continued. “It’s not probably bad or wrong or good to be in the trade rumors, it’s something in between. But if it’s up to me, I’m not leaving, so, finish the season with the Jazz.”
