Mike Conley has left the Orlando “bubble” in order to be with his wife for the birth of their son, the Utah Jazz announced.

Conley will miss the start of the playoffs, where the Jazz will face the Denver Nuggets. Game 1 will take place on Monday.

The versatile guard will re-join the Jazz for the postseason, but is expected to miss at least the first two (or three) games of the series.
