Jazz point guard Ricky Rubio was ruled out for Game 1 against the Rockets on Sunday and could miss several weeks. Donovan Mitchell will likely move to point guard with Royce O'Neale starting at shooting guard, giving the Jazz an all-rookie starting backcourt.
"Rubio has played unbelievable this year and in that first series when he was out there," Rockets forward Trevor Ariza said. "I think that's going to change a lot of what they do. At the end of the day, it's not really (about) worrying about who's out there on the court for them. It's about executing the gameplan and trying to impose our will.
