Burke departs Jazz victory over Clippers with back spasms

Brad Mills-USA TODAY Sports

Utah Jazz point guard Trey Burke left Wednesday night's win over the Los Angeles Clippers with back spasms and did not return.

While Raul Neto starts at the point for the Jazz, Burke sees the bulk of minutes, and is averaging 11.6 points on very solid shooting - 45 percent from the floor and 44.4 percent from deep.

As Gordon Hayward struggled somewhat early on, Burke emerged as Utah's most reliable threat from beyond the arc.
