Utah’s Rubio And Exum Out Tonight

(Salt Lake City, UT)  —  The Jazz will be shorthanded as they look to stave off elimination tonight in Houston when they take on the Rockets for Game Five of their second-round series.

Guards Ricky Rubio and Dante Exum will not play.

Rubio has been sidelined for the entire series with a strained hamstring.

Exum was injured in the third quarter of Game Four with the Rockets on Sunday.

The Jazz trail the series 3-1 after dropping both games at home over the weekend.  A Jazz win would force Game Six, which would be on Thursday at Vivint Smart Home Arena.

Tipoff tonight is set for 6:00 p.m.
