Rudy Gay News, Rumors, Updates - Golden State Warriors

Out Saturday Gay will not play in Saturday's matchup with the 76ers due to lower back spasms, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact Gay and the Jazz are playing the second night of a back-to-back set, so it looks like the Jazz are going to err on the side of caution with the veteran's back. His next chance to suit up will come Monday against the Timberwolves.

Meaningful role continues Thursday Gay ended with two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 18 minutes during Thursday's 132-129 overtime victory over the Pelicans.

Impact Gay logged at least 15 minutes for the fifth consecutive game, although the production tells another tale. While he has been a regular part of the rotation of late, he has scored more than five points only once, sitting well outside the top 250 overall. It's always nice to see veterans playing a role on young, rebuilding teams, but his fantasy value is basically non-existent at this point.

Gets 15 minutes in return Gay (finger) generated nine points (4-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 15 minutes in Wednesday's 124-123 win over the Warriors.

Impact Taking the court for the first time since Nov. 13, Gay claimed a spot in the rotation and fared well during his time on the court. With all of Kelly Olynyk, Jarred Vanderbilt and Walker Kessler viewed as greater priorities in the frontcourt, Gay is unlikely to see his role expand much moving forward, and the impending return of Lauri Markkanen (illness) could even result in Gay losing some minutes.

Off injury report Gay (finger) isn't among the players on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game versus the Warriors.

Impact Gay hasn't appeared in a game for the Jazz since Nov. 13 but seems poised to make his return Wednesday. He should slot in as a contributor off the bench, but he isn't exactly a fantasy darling at this point in his career.

DECEMBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Practices Monday Gay (finger) was a full participant in Monday's practice, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact Gay has been out for roughly three weeks due to a finger sprain but is hoping to make his return Wednesday against the Warriors after putting in a full practice session. In his 12 appearances this season, Gay has averaged 4.5 points and 3.4 rebounds in 15.8 minutes per game.

DECEMBER 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Out again Saturday Gay (finger) won't dress for Saturday's game versus the Trail Blazers, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact Gay doesn't have a defined target date for his return to the floor, but he remains out Saturday and hasn't suited up since Nov. 13. His next opportunity to do so arrives Wednesday versus the Warriors.

Out at least two more weeks The Jazz announced Thursday that Gay will be out at least two more weeks due to a left finger sprain, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact Gay was unavailable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks and underwent an MRI that revealed a third finger MCP joint sprain in his left hand. He'll be re-evaluated in approximately two weeks, while his absence should allow Lauri Markkanen and Simone Fontecchio to see increased run.

Won't suit up Tuesday Gay will miss Tuesday's game versus the Knicks due to a left hand sprain, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact Despite a lengthy injury history, Gay hadn't missed a game yet this season due to injury before Tuesday, though he missed a three-game stretch while in COVID-19 protocols. The veteran's next chance to rejoin the action surfaces Friday versus the Suns.

NOVEMBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

No longer in protocols Gay (COVID-19) was left off the Jazz's injury report.

Impact Gay missed the last three games while in COVID-19 protocols but should be set to return for Wednesday's game versus the Mavericks. Gay should return to playing 15-20 minutes per game as a primary backup at the forward position.

Will travel with team Gay (COVID-19) will travel with the team during Utah's upcoming three-game road trip, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact Gay has missed three straight games while in COVID-19 protocols and may be sidelined for additional contests but appears likely to return at some point during Utah's upcoming three-game road trip. Before being sidelined, the veteran forward averaged 5.8 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 17.0 minutes per game.

NOVEMBER 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Out again Monday Gay (COVID-19) remains out Monday against Memphis.

Impact The veteran will miss a third straight game after initially landing in protocols midway through last week. He'll continue to be monitored on a day-to-day basis ahead of Wednesday's game at Dallas.

Won't play Saturday Gay (Covid-19 protocols) won't suit up for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.
