Alec Burks will come off the bench in Utah's opener Wednesday versus the Pistons.

Burks will come off the bench in Utah's opener Wednesday versus the Pistons, Jody Geneessy of the Deseret News reports.

Analysis:

Even though he'll come off the bench, Burks stands a good chance of getting significant minutes. This move could be a move to get more bench scoring, and the 24-year-old could see starts later in the season. Rodney Hood will start in his place.
