Jazz G George Hill Out Tuesday Against the Blazers

Utah Jazz guard George Hill will miss his fourth consecutive game with a groin injury when his team takes on the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday. 

This has to be concerning for the Jazz as they enter the playoffs. Sure the team wants to take it easy with its injured veterans, but Hill will want to get some work in befor the postseason starts in two weeks time. 

Injuries aside, Hill has put up an otherwise solid first season in Utah. He's averaging 16.9 points and 4.1 assists while shooting at a tremendous 47 percent from the field. 

With Hill, Raul Neto and Rodney Hood all sidelined Tuesday, look for Dante Exum and Shelvin Mack to continue seeing an uptick in usage. Though, neither one has done anything of substance with Hill sidelined the past four games.

This is more about Gordon Hayward's likely relevance from a DFS perspective in this late-season slate.
