Collin Sexton Out for Jazz with Ankle Injury

Collin Sexton of the Utah Jazz has been ruled out for at least a week due to a sprained left ankle he suffered during a game against the Indiana Pacers. Prior to the injury, he was averaging 18.3 points per game and had been a key player for the Jazz, contributing significantly to their offensive output. His absence may impact the Jazz's performance, as they have struggled without him, holding a record of 0-2 in games he did not play this season. Sexton's potential trade value could be affected by this injury, especially with the NBA trade deadline approaching on February 6, 2024, and interest from teams like the Los Angeles Lakers and Orlando Magic. An MRI is underway to evaluate the severity of his injury, which could influence his future with the team. The Jazz will rely more heavily on Jordan Clarkson and Keyonte George in Sexton's absence.
