Ricky Rubio (hip) gets green light for Jazz on Friday night
Utah Jazz point guard Ricky Rubio (hip) is available to play on Friday against the Portland Trail Blazers.
Rubio was previously considered questionable after missing Wednesday's practice and the final three games before the All-Star break, but he made it through Thursday's session and is good to go tonight at home versus Portland. Rubio's return will likely send Royce O'Neale back to the bench and should take away some usage from Donovan Mitchell. The 27-year-old guard averaged 20.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, 7.8 assists, 1.2 steals, and 1.6 3-pointers across five games in February before suffering the injury.
numberFire's models project Rubio to score 28.6 FanDuel points at a cost of $7,400 on Friday.
