The Utah Jazz fell victim to Damian Lillard and the Portland Trail Blazers last night, losing their fourth consecutive game. One bright spot, though, was the fact that Mike Conley started at point guard and eclipsed the 30-minute mark for the first time since November.
Conley had been on a solid minute restriction after returning from a hamstring injury that costed him 13 straight games.
It was not a surprise at all to see the Jazz be cautious with their prized off-season acquisition; hamstring injuries are tricky and Conley has a long list of injuries in the past.
