Trail Blazers' Festus Ezeli: Will not play Monday
Ezeli (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's preseason opener versus the Jazz, Tony Jones of the Salt Lake Tribune reports.
Analysis:
Ezeli received a pain injection in his left knee back in August and continues to sit out of all team-related drills and scrimmages. He remains without any official timetable for a return, though it was initially indicated that he'd be sidelined for around six weeks following the injection.
