Usual Jazz starting small forward Andrei Kirilenko received treatment Monday morning for his ailing lower back, but did not practice with the team.
The Jazz are calling Kirilenko "doubtful" for Tuesday night's home game against Indiana.
Kirilenko missed last Saturday's loss at Portland due to lower back inflammation originally sustained when he tweaked the back late during practice last Thursday. He has not played or practiced since.
If Kirilenko is not available Tuesday, Jazz coach Jerry Sloan said Monday, reserve swingman C.J. Miles likely would make a second straight start in his place.
