Jazz's Walker Kessler (concussion) done for season
Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (concussion) is out for the remainder of the season, reports Tony Jones of The Athletic.
What It Means:
Kessler suffered a concussion on Sunday against the Brooklyn Nets and entered league protocol on Monday. The rookie could potentially return if the Jazz make a run in the postseason. In the meantime, Udoka Azubuike, Kelly Olynyk, and Damian Jones will have more minutes available in the frontcourt.
Kessler averaged 27.9 FanDuel points in 23.0 minutes across 74 games (40 starts) as a rookie, with 9.2 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 2.3 blocks per game.
