Clarkson underwent an MRI on his left foot Monday which confirmed a torn plantar fascia, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.
Clarkson played just three minutes against the Heat on Saturday before leaving due to a left foot injury, and the MRI on Monday confirmed the severity of the injury. Johnny Juzang, Isaiah Collier, Patty Mills and Brice Sensabaugh all have an opportunity to establish a larger role for themselves over the next two weeks while Clarkson is sidelined.

Jazz's Jordan Clarkson: Out Sunday
Rotowire
Clarkson (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Magic, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.
Clarkson lasted only a few minutes during Saturday's game against Miami before being ruled out due to left plantar fasciitis. It's not a surprise to see the veteran guard ruled out for the second half of Utah's back-to-back set, but it's unclear how long Clarkson will be sidelined. His next chance to suit up will come Tuesday against the Hawks. In his absence, Isaiah Collier and Johnny Juzang are candidates for increased roles, especially if Keyonte George (heel) is also ruled out.

Jazz's Jordan Clarkson: Won't return Saturday
Rotowire
Clarkson won't return to Saturday's game against Miami due to left plantar fasciitis, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports. He finished with two points and one assist in three minutes.
Clarkson logged just a few minutes before leaving the game for good. Saturday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set, and this news doesn't bode well for Clarkson's status Sunday against Orlando. Johnny Juzang and Isaiah Collier could see an uptick in minutes in the meantime.

Jazz's Jordan Clarkson: Returns to action with 17 points
Rotowire
Clarkson finished with 17 points (7-16 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one block over 30 minutes during Saturday's 114-111 loss to Philadelphia.
Clarkson found his way off the injury report and logged a start in place of Keyonte George (ankle), who remains out with an ankle injury. Clarkson's skill and vast experience make him an obvious start over Isaiah Collier, who is a talented rookie but is still developing. Clarkson will log quality minutes as George works himself back to action, and the veteran will eventually revert to his sixth-man role with the team.

Jazz's Jordan Clarkson: Questionable to play Saturday
Rotowire

Jazz's Jordan Clarkson: Productive off bench in loss
Rotowire
Clarkson ended Monday's 144-107 loss to the Clippers with 20 points (6-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), two assists and one steal over 23 minutes.
Despite a seven-game absence between Nov. 26 and Dec. 8 due to left plantar fasciitis, Clarkson hasn't missed a beat and has scored at least 20 points in his two appearances since returning to the hardwood. The veteran isn't expected to start any time soon, as the Jazz are set with Keyonte George and Collin Sexton as their starting backcourt. However, Clarkson remains reliable due to his scoring prowess and high usage rate off the bench. The foot injury he's dealing with doesn't appear to be slowing him down.

Jazz's Jordan Clarkson: Pops for team-high 23 in return
Rotowire
Clarkson (foot) ended with 23 points (8-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four assists, two rebounds, one block and one steal in 31 minutes off the bench during Friday's 134-126 loss to the Suns.
The veteran guard led the Jazz in scoring on the night as he saw his first action since Nov. 23. Clarkson missed seven games while dealing with a flareup of his plantar fasciitis, but Utah didn't baby him in his return, as the 31 minutes were a season-high workload for the 32-year-old. He's had trouble staying healthy to begin the season, suiting up for only 14 of the Jazz's 24 contests, but he appears ready to handle his usual role as the leader of the second unit.
