Hinson (hamstring) is out for Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies.
After missing Utah's final two preseason tilts with adductor and hamstring injuries, Hinson will be forced to sit out the regular-season opener. The 26-year-old averaged 7.0 points and 3.0 rebounds in 14.4 minutes across his two exhibition contests. Even when healthy, Hinson is not projected to be a part of the rotation for a Jazz team ready to compete for a postseason berth in 2026-27.
