Rudy Gay News, Rumors, Updates - Golden State Warriors | FOX Sports

Submits nice effort in win Gay provided 15 points (6-14 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 3-7 FT), nine rebounds and one assist in 26 minutes during Wednesday's 108-104 victory over the Nuggets.

Impact Gay's role was increased in the wake of injuries to Joe Ingles (knee), Rudy Gobert (calf), Jordan Clarkson (knee), Hassan Whiteside (back) and Donovan Mitchell (concussion). The veteran had logged more than 20 minutes just once in seven contests leading up to Wednesday, but he was able to contribute 26 minutes in the win against Denver. Gay finished with a season-high nine boards to narrowly miss out on a double-double. He should continue to play a prominent role for as long as the Jazz remain severely shorthanded.
