Game 53: Warriors 109 - Jazz 119
February 19th 2008 09:05 pm
The toe injury from the year before finally caught up to Stephen Jackson. Jackson didn’t play his usual aggressive style in the beginning of the game. He settled for shooting 3s and passing off to teammates.
When he came on for the second half, he was really limping around the court. Jim Barnett commented on the injury a bit into the third quarter, mentioning Jackson’s gimpy walk during the layup drills. Midway through the 3rd quarter, Jackson had to head back into the locker room to get treatment. He did not come back to the court.
Jackson’s dismal night was compounded by drawing Andrei Kirilenko as his defender:
