What's the Status on Burks?

I would've preferred that they never reported that the ankle was 100% healed. How long has it been since it was reported that the ankle was healed? A was it a week, two weeks, longer??

Your lack of outrage is hilarious.
 
Tbh I don't think it matters if Burks getts ready. The Jazz don't have an easy schedule and in order for Burks to potentially make an impact IMO it would require a 6th seed, which isn't impossible but rather unlikely right now. Even then it isn't given that an extra 3 games for Burks before the playoffs would provide him with enough practice to affect the outcomes of games against OKC.
It could even be better long term to get a glimpse of what playoff Spurs basketball means. Learning experience for next (hopefully more healthy) season.
 
Just read an article in the Utah jazz newsfeed section saying that he will play in games this week.
 
My hope is that he has been doing full on practices with the team for a while and they have just been overly cautious as far as inserting him back in the lineup. If he does indeed come back by Sunday or the game after and doesn't appear to need "game-conditioning" than that will be a very good advantage for us moving forward.

Our bench needs help if we're going to the playoffs so this could be the exact thing to help make us that much more competitive down the stretch.

From what I have heard and read he has been practicing for quite a while. So I think he will hit the ground running.
