Lauri Markkanen Leaves Game With Left Knee Contusion 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed Nov 27, 2024 1:39 pm

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen left Tuesday's loss to the San Antonio Spurs with a scary looking left knee injury. After banging knees with Spurs big man Victor Wembanyama, Markkanen was down for several minutes before being helped off the floor. The Jazz later announced that their star forward has a left knee contusion.


Markkanen is averaging 19.5 points, 6.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists for Utah this season. He's shooting 47% from the field, including a career-best 42% on three-pointers.
