Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen out at least a month with 2 broken bones in hand

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen will miss at least a month with two nondisplaced fractures in his right hand.

Markkanen suffered the injury during Utah's game against the Dallas Mavericks on Nov. 6 and will be reevaluated in four weeks, the Jazz announced Wednesday.

Markkanen is averaging 18.0 points, 6.8 rebounds and 2.0 assists in eight games this season.

The 29-year-old Finnish forward is in his fifth season with Utah after four with Chicago and one in Cleveland. He was an All-Star in the 2022-23 season, when he averaged 25.6 points and 8.6 rebounds.

Utah has already been hit hard by injuries early in the season, with forward Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee) and center Jusuf Nurkic (toe) out.
