Lucas (ankle) is in a walking boot and will not take the court Wednesday against the Mavs, the Deseret News reports.

Analysis:

Lucas suffered a sprained ankle while attempting to block a shot during practice earlier in the week and will miss at least one game to recuperate. With Lucas out, both Ian Clark and Malcolm Thomas will be active. Realistically, though, none of the three are strong fantasy options in most leagues.
