Earl Watson (leg) is doubtful to play on Wednesday. Watson has a non-displaced leg fracture, so nobody should be surprised. Alec Burks is expected to play more point guard while Watson is out.

Earl Watson (right leg) will not play against the Kings on Monday. Watson has a non-displaced fracture in his right leg and he's going to be out for quite some time. He was playing about 22 minutes per game before going down and guys like Alec Burks and Jamaal Tinsley will pick up some more playing time. Neither players have been turning heads, though.

Earl Watson (right leg) is not expected to play on Monday. No surprise here, as Watson was just diagnosed with a bone bruise and small fracture in the tibia of his right leg. Randy Foye, Jamaal Tinsley and Alec Burks will all take on more minutes until Watson resumes his role off the bench.

An MRI on Earl Watson's right leg revealed a bone bruise and a non-displaced fracture in his tibia. Watson can ramp up his activity according to his comfort level, but realistically he's out indefinitely (Steve Nash missed about a month after a similar injury earlier this season). Watson's absence leaves Jamaal Tinsley on an island at PG for the Jazz.

Earl Watson (leg) did not rejoin the team for Saturday's game and he will not play against the Blazers. He had an MRI on his leg, but those results have yet to be released. Jamaal Tinsley and Alec Burks should pick up most of the point guard duties with Watson out. Tinsley had a rough night on Friday, so the Jazz might be more inclined to give Burks more opportunity.

Earl Watson (leg) will not travel with the team and is scheduled to have an MRI on Saturday. He still could join the team in time for Saturday night's game against the Blazers, but it's appearing doubtful at this point. Jamaal Tinsley and Alec Burks are likely to split the point guard duties.

Earl Watson will not return to Friday's game due to a right lower leg injury. He went to the locker room on two separate occassions and was ruled out pretty quickly following his second trip. Jamaal Tinsley and Alec Burks will pick up some extra minutes. Tinsley's upside isn't high, but Burks is worth keeping an eye on in deeper formats.

Earl Watson started the second half of Saturday's game and finished with two points, three rebounds, six assists and one steal in 26 minutes. Jamaal Tinsley's illness prompted the change and there are no lasting implications for fantasy owners.

Earl Watson and Jamaal Tinsley will split backup point guard duties behind Mo Williams. They both deserve to play," Tyrone Corbin said. "Jamaal's done a tremendous job for us. Earl's working his way back in. There's not going to be a lot of minutes there now that Mo's back up to speed." As long as Williams is healthy, neither Tinsley or Watson are fantasy options.

Earl Watson said that he's "feeling more and more comfortable" on the court following his return from knee surgery and that his knee is "not an issue." Watson had no points, two boards and two assists in his season debut, but the good news is that he's having no trouble with his surgically-repaired knee. He's not wearing a protective brace or sleeve on the area, but Tyrone Corbin isn't ready to unleash Watson fully. "I have to talk to the doctors to see where we are," he said.
