Joe Ingles will join the Portland Trail Blazers as a player.
Rudy Gobert has missed 10 of Utah's past 15 games, and the Jazz have lost eight of those games without him.
Ingles was hurt in Sunday's 126-106 defeat to the Minnesota Timberwolves on the road.
The injury occurred while Ingles was driving to the basket while being defended by Timberwolves guard Jordan McLaughlin.
The Clippers have flirted with postseason elimination before and came out on top. Now, against Jazz they are likely to repeat the same.
Donovan Mitchell scored 37 points on 15 for 29 shooting, including 6 for 12 from three-point range to give the Jazz a 2-0 series lead.
