Devin Vassell - Out SaturdayVassell (knee) is out Saturday at Utah.

Tre Jones - Questionable SaturdayJones (foot) is questionable for Saturday's tilt against the Jazz.
ImpactLeft foot soreness has kept Jones out for seven of the past eight games. If he returns Saturday, he could end up on a minutes limit, though he started and played 25 minutes during his one appearance in this span. A return could result in fewer minutes for Malaki Branham, Devonte' Graham and Blake Wesley.

Jeremy Sochan - Probable SaturdaySochan (quadriceps) is probable for Saturday's matchup against the Jazz.
ImpactSochan was initially questionable for Thursday's game against the Mavericks before being deemed active, but he never saw the floor. It seems more likely Sochan will actually play Saturday. Since the New Year, he's averaged 11.6 points, 5.2 rebounds and 2.7 assists in 27.1 minutes.
