Utah's leading scorer and rebounder Kyle Kuzma won't play Thursday against Oregon after spraining his ankle in practice during the week, the school confirmed to ESPN 700's Bill Riley.
Kuzma's absence in a massive blow for the Utes' upset hopes against the Ducks, who own the nation's longest active home winning streak with 40 straight.
On the season, the junior forward is averaging 15.7 points and 10.2 rebounds.
