Coming into Friday night's game against the LA Clippers, the Jazz knew they would be severely shorthanded with four of their top 10 rotation all out due to a variety of injuries.
When asked about playing shorthanded, especially against a versatile Clippers team, Utah head coach Quin Snyder had an honest assessment about what his team would need to do to get the win.
"Tonight is going to give some of the other guys a chance. … We need to be able to execute and still play at a high level," he said pregame.
