What's the Status on Burks?

I don't think he comes back for tonight because it's kind of a big game, but if we don't bring Alec back for Friday's game and he's healthy I think its stupid. If we go into the offseason without him coming back he isn't a trade asset. If we wait any longer than Friday's game I'm not sure he finds a rhythm before the playoffs.

I get it player safety and such but really... gordon is playing hurt... Gobert mentioned he's got some stuff other than the knee. I'm sure Alec wants back in... let's just give him the 10-15 minutes Chris Johnson is getting and work him into game shape. This is becoming analysis-paralysis.

Well, if he's going to return, it seems now's the time with this 3-game home stand.

Found this quote reported on Twitter by David Locke on Hoops Hype: "Quin Snyder says Alec Burks has been going through some script sessions and controlled practice. Improving."

Does anyone know what "script sessions" are?

Fairly confident 'script sessions' is another way to say they've got him simulating in-game situations..
 
Enough already - re-assign this team doctor to the Utah elementary school system so he can put band aids on scrapped knees and send kids with sniffles home for the week.

Jazz need one of those 1970's era NFL team doctors - throw some dirt on it and GTF out there!!!!

They are playing sore. Alec is coming off a surgically repaired ankle.

Plantar fasciitis isn't a soreness... It's an injury that gets worse with playing. The ankle is good it's his body they are trying to get up to full speed... Point was no one is 100% right now... Get him on the effing court.

I'm going to assume the Jazz doctors know what they are doing.
