George (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets.
George hasn't played since March 11 due to a right hamstring strain and remains without a clear timetable for a return. The 22-year-old point guard should be considered doubtful for future contests until the Jazz provide an update on his progress. With Isaiah Collier (hamstring) out and Elijah Harkless (hamstring) questionable, Bez Mbeng could see a significant bump in minutes against Denver.

Jazz's Keyonte George: Won't play Friday
Rotowire
George (hamstring) has been ruled out for Friday's game in Portland.
George suffered a right hamstring strain during Wednesday's loss to the Knicks, so it's not surprising at all to see him hit the sidelines for Thursday's game. Given the tricky nature of hamstring injuries, partnered with Utah's desire to try and keep their top-8 protected pick in the upcoming draft, this is something that could turn into a multi-game absence for George. Isaiah Collier will be the primary beneficiary while George is out.

Jazz's Keyonte George: Leaves early with hamstring injury
Rotowire
George has been ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's game against the Knicks due to a right hamstring injury. He recorded 14 points (6-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five assists, two rebounds and one steal over 20 minutes prior to departing.
George checked out of the game with 5:47 left in the third quarter and was quickly ruled out for the rest of the contest. Though the severity of George's injury won't be known until he undergoes further testing, even mild hamstring strains often result in multi-game absences for players. With that in mind, George should be viewed as unlikely to play in Utah's next contest Friday in Portland. Isaiah Collier would be the next man up to start at point guard if George misses time.

Jazz's Keyonte George: Sitting out Thursday
Rotowire
George is out for Thursday's game against the Wizards due to right ankle injury management.
Thursday is the second part of Utah's back-to-back, and the team is choosing to hold the star guard out of action. Isaiah Collier should draw the start at point guard versus Washington, and he's averaging 14.5 points, 8.6 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 31.4 minutes per contest in 15 games as a starter this season.

Jazz's Keyonte George: Drops 30 points in Philadelphia
Rotowire
George finished Wednesday's 106-102 loss to the 76ers with 30 points (10-24 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 30 minutes.
George propelled the Jazz's offense during Wednesday's loss, with 15 of his game-high 30 points coming in the third quarter. It was the eighth time this season that the third-year pro connected on at least five three-pointers. George has scored 30-plus points in back-to-back games and appears to be fully recovered from the right ankle sprain that cost him six straight games in February. That said, his playing time could be restricted for the second leg of the Jazz's back-to-back set against the Wizards on Thursday.
