Utah Jazz: Boozer practices, should play Sunday

All-Star power forward Carlos Boozer made it through all of practice Friday and is on track to make his preseason debut in the Jazz's exhibition game Sunday at Portland.

Boozer missed Utah's first two preseason games with soreness in his strained left hamstring, including Thursday's loss to the Phoenix Suns.

The Jazz are calling him "probable" for Sunday's game.

Reserve guard Ronnie Price didn't practice Friday due to a bruise in his lower right leg that was sustained in Thursday's game.

The Utah Valley State product is dubbed "questionable" for Sunday's outing, the third of seven Jazz preseason games.

Also questionable for Sunday is rookie big man Kosta Koufos, who strained his left hamstring in last Tuesday's preseason-opening win over the Los Angeles Lakers in Anaheim, Calif.

Koufos took part in some of Friday's practice, but did not get up to full speed.
