Utah Jazz guard Darryn Peterson was upgraded to cleared on the injury report Wednesday night, October 28, after being listed day-to-day with a head issue earlier in the day. The move removes the 19-year-old from the Jazz injury list following a day-to-day designation.
Peterson was listed as cleared on the official injury report at 10:06 PM ET on Wednesday, Oct. 28. This update occurred after the 9:00 PM ET tip of the Utah home game against the Spurs. While the report provided no further detail or comment regarding the head issue, the cleared status means Peterson should drop off the injury report unless a new issue arises.
The clearance for Peterson comes while the Utah Jazz manage several other injuries. Lauri Markkanen (right wrist), Jaren Jackson Jr. (right knee), Jusuf Nurkic (right foot), and Trey Alexander (left knee) are all currently listed as out. No return dates have been announced for these four players.
The Utah Jazz hold a 1-3 record this season and are 1-4 when Peterson is not in the lineup. Peterson has played in all four games this season, averaging 11.5 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 2.5 assists in 29.4 minutes per game. The team is currently 13th in the conference and has lost two straight games.
The Jazz are scheduled to play the Trail Blazers on Saturday, Oct. 31, at 3:00 PM ET.
