Bell, Price and AK out, who is available in the D-League?

I disagree Qmanl. The young guys need more minutes. Give the minutes to the 9 guys here now, the guys who will be playing if and when the team is in the playoffs, and in the future.

So play the rookies. But if we start Deron, CJ and Hayward we only have one guard/wing on the bench. So we need some more depth if Raja and Price are going to miss more time.

.....well, two of those 3 players, maybe all 3, should be in the D-League! So we'd be replacing broken parts with other broken parts!
 
Can't Millsap play SF? We've got 3 big guys that barely get minutes anyway.
Play Hayward and Miles at SG, and let some of the small PFs play SF.
That gives you 4 guards. They should manage 96 minutes between them.
Based on last night, I'd like to see Hayward getting a lot more minutes anyway.
Just give more minutes for Watson, Miles, Hayward, Evans, Fes, and Elson, shift a PF to SF some, and you're all set. Oh yea, and more minutes for Hayward and Fes, did I mention that?

If nobody else on the team can play SF , or Jeffers is better than Miles, fine, this would be my 3rd choice.

2nd option is just this: No reason why they can't try Hayward and Miles playing 35+ minutes each, for a couple games at least, if nobody else can play SF or SG well.

Hayward just keeps getting better game after game, WHEN THEY PLAY HIM. He did log 30 minutes last night, played well, so let's get him 30 minutes EVERY GAME. He has been productive and energetic, not necessarily shooting, whenever he gets minutes. Hopefully Mr. Corbin sees this... We depend trememdously on AK defensively; when he went down, we simply couldn't get stops. Pietrus and Gortat totally disrupted our offense in the 2nd half. The officials mostly put away their whistles last night, Phoenix took advantage in the 2nd half, but we didn't come close to matching the Suns' physicality. Sad showing, IMO...
 
The officials helped keep the Suns in the game in the first half.
The Jazz get the short end even on their own court.

I agree. The plan should be to develop Hayward and Evans and really evaluate Fes. I hope the Jazz miss the playoffs. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe a conditional 1st-round pick is owed to Minny for Jefferson. Make the playoffs and I believe the Jazz lose their first-rounder this summer. The Jazz need a serious upgrade in talent and a lottery pick, even if it's at #14 might help. Of course, since the franchise has blown every 1st round pick ecept Deron, maybe having a lottery pick will mean absolutely ZERO.

Look ahead to several years of having lottery picks, especially when the team is comprised of Millsap, Hayward and a bunch of no-namers.
 
This is really our big problem. Memo, Bell, and AK are always Injured. This is why we dont practice well. And AK seems to love it when he gets injured because he can then go home.

When 3 of your core guys are on the bench, you're gonna have a tough time winning games.
 
Kevin Kruger had a perfect night literally in the Flash win tonight as well as being leading scorer. Did not miss a shot.
 
Also Jeffers had 22 on Saturday and Jamero Davidson had 27 and 8 boards. All have Jazz ties and Corbin is making noise of needing to sign someone to a 10 day contract.
