Rubio (hamstring) said he intends to play in Sunday's game against the Lakers, Tony Jones of the Salt Lake Tribune reports.
Rubio was forced to exit Thursday's game early with a sore hamstring and while it doesn't sound like he's completely over it, he's going to try and give it a go against the Lakers. The Jazz are currently fighting for a final playoff spot in the West, which likely has something to do with Rubio playing through the ailment. Barring a setback or uptick in discomfort during pregame warmups, look for Rubio to start at point guard like usual, though it wouldn't be surprising if the Jazz kept a close eye on his overall workload.
