The Utah Jazz have assigned Toure’ Murry to the NBA Development League’s Idaho Stampede, the Jazz’s exclusive D-League affiliate.  

This will be the second assignment this season for Murry, who was previously assigned to Idaho from Nov. 13-Dec. 2.  In six games (five starts) for the Stampede, Murry averaged 14.0 points, 5.5 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 2.3 steals in 31.5 minutes of play.

Alec Burks will undergo season-ending surgery on his left shoulder.

Burks signed an extension with the Utah Jazz worth $42 million over four seasons in October.

Burks first suffered the injury in early December and initially tried to play through it.

The Utah Jazz have a young roster with a lot of talented bigs in Derrick Favors, Rudy Gobert and Enes Kanter, along with veteran Trevor Booker.

The team best built around a strong frontcourt is perhaps the Memphis Grizzlies in how they use Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph.

"I watch Memphis a lot," said Quin Snyder. "I think with the effectiveness of their bigs it is a good team for us to watch."

The Utah Jazz are lining up the call up of Patrick Christopher from the NBA D-League.

Christopher went to training camp with the Memphis Grizzlies this season and has since played for the Iowa Energy.

Enes Kanter has been fined $25,000 for throwing mouthpiece into the spectator stands during the Utah Jazz's 101-92 loss to Sacramento on Monday, the NBA announced on Tuesday.

Alec Burks will not need surgery on his injured left shoulder after meeting with specialists.

Burks has been dealing with an inflamed left shoulder since the preseason, but the consensus of four specialists is that an aggressive rehabilitation program can restore the strength in his shoulder for him to return to the lineup in December.

The Utah Jazz have termed Burks as "out indefinitely."

Burks has met recently with specialists in Cleveland and New York.

Alec Burks will miss at least two games due to shoulder inflammation.

Burks missed Wednesday's game and will sit out on Friday as well, undergoing further tests.

The Utah Jazz have recalled guard Toure’ Murry from the NBA Development League’s Idaho Stampede.

Murry was assigned to the Stampede on Nov. 13.

Murry (6-5, 195, Wichita State) appeared in six games (five starts) for the Stampede, averaging 14.0 points, 5.5 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 2.3 steals (tied for sixth in the NBA D-League) in 31.5 minutes of play.
