The Utah Jazz should let Mehmet Okur rest until the playoffs
Starting center Mehmet Okur didn’t play in the Jazz’ last game and there is really no reason to play him until the playoffs with his Achilles aching him right now. Okur has played in 71 games (all starts) for the Jazz this season and he is averaging 29.4 minutes, 13.3 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.1 blocked shots per game. The Jazz will need all hands on the deck in the playoffs so it’s a good idea to rest Okur for now.
