Jazz's George Hill: Ruled out for Monday

George Hill (toe) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Lakers, Tim MacMahon of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis:

Hill's absence will be his third consecutive game on the sidelines Monday, as he continues to work back from a sprained toe. It's a bit concerning that Hill is being ruled out a day in advance, but it appears the team is still holding out hope that he'll be back for either Tuesday's game against the Suns or Thursday's tilt with the Warriors. Dante Exum and Shelvin Mack should pick up some extra run in his place, with both players logging 22 and 26 minutes, respectively, in their last contest.
