Elijah Harkless: Breaking News

Won't play in regular-season finale

Harkless (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Lakers. Harkless will miss a seventh consecutive contest due to a left hamstring strain. The two-way player will finish the season with averages of 6.8 points, 2.9 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 21.0 minutes per game over 26 regular-season outings (nine starts).

Downgraded to out

Harkless (hamstring) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Grizzlies. Harkless has been downgraded from questionable to out and will miss a sixth straight game. His final chance to suit up this season will come Sunday against the Lakers. Bez Mbeng and Kennedy Chandler are candidates for increased roles in Utah's depleted backcourt.

Questionable for Friday

Harkless (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against Memphis. Harkless has missed Utah's last five games with a left hamstring strain, though the questionable tag means there's a chance he will return this season. If he remains sidelined, Bez Mbeng and Kennedy Chandler will both likely continue seeing significant minutes.
