Clarkson (back) is out for Sunday's game against the Warriors.
EDGE Analysis
The Jazz won't risk Clarkson in the season finale since the team has nothing to play for. The veteran guard showed his scoring prowess whether playing as a starter or coming off the bench, as he started in only 19 of his 55 appearances. He ends the campaign with averages of 17.1 points, 5.0 assists and 3.4 rebounds per game while shooting 41.3 percent from the field and 29.4 percent from deep.

Clarkson (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Clippers, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Clarkson hasn't played since March 25 due to joint inflammation in his back. He has only one more chance to suit up this season -- Sunday against Golden State -- but with the Jazz out of playoff contention, the veteran point guard isn't expected to suit up for that game.

Clarkson (back) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Rockets, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Clarkson hasn't played since March 25 due to left SI joint inflammation, and though the Jazz haven't officially shut him down for the season, the team doesn't have much incentive to get him back on the floor for its final three games. Talen Horton-Tucker and Keyonte George should continue to log heavy minutes out of the Utah backcourt Thursday.

Clarkson (back) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game versus Denver, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.
EDGE Analysis
Clarkson's odds of a return during the 2023-24 campaign dwindle by the day, with Utah having three games on the schedule following Tuesday's contest. Kris Dunn (foot) will also be unavailable for Utah's backcourt rotation Tuesday.

Clarkson (back) will not play Friday against the Clippers, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
This will be Clarkson's fifth game in a row on the shelf, and his 11th absence out of the past 12 outings. With no timetable being reported, it wouldn't be a surprise if Clarkson's season is over.

Clarkson (back) won't play Tuesday against the Cavaliers, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Clarkson is set to miss a fourth consecutive game, and the 10th out of the Jazz's last 11 outings, with a nagging injury. The Jazz are already out of the playoff race, so it wouldn't be surprising if Utah ends up shutting down Clarkson for the rest of the campaign, though there haven't been any signs of that happening yet. His next chance to play will come against the Clippers on Friday.

Clarkson (back) will not play Sunday against the Kings, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
This will be the third game in a row on the shelf for Clarkson, and the Jazz have no reason to rush him back given their position in the standings. Keyonte George and Collin Sexton have been playing a ton of minutes, and Johnny Juzang has been getting more opportunities in Clarkson's absence.

Clarkson (back) will not play Friday against the Rockets.
EDGE Analysis
Clarkson will miss a second straight game Friday, and it's usually not a good sign that he's getting ruled out a day in advance. In Clarkson's absence Wednesday against the Spurs, both Keyonte George and Collin Sexton played a ton of minutes, while Brice Sensabaugh played just 13 minutes off the bench.

Clarkson won't play Wednesday against the Spurs due to lower back soreness, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.
EDGE Analysis
This is a new injury for Clarkson, but it's no surprise to see the Jazz err on the side of caution. With Kris Dunn suspended, there should be plenty of minutes available for guys like Johnny Juzang and Brice Sensabaugh.
