What will Bojan Bogdanovic's wrist surgery mean for the Utah Jazz if the 2019-20 NBA season resumes?
Bogdanovic will undergo surgery to repair an injury that caused him to play in pain, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported Monday. And while it's uncertain when the Jazz or anyone else might play basketball games, Bogdanovic isn't expected back until a subsequent 2020-21 campaign.
During his first season in Utah, Bogdanovic had emerged as a key starter for a Jazz team battling to secure home-court advantage in the first round of the playoffs before the NBA's shutdown. So how might the Jazz replace him if and when they play again, and where will the injury leave them in the West race?
