How are they doing?

A look at Jazz players midway through the 2007-08 NBA season:

The starters

DERON WILLIAMS

Point guard

With 19 double-doubles this season, Williams has been super steady — but not necessarily spectacular, which could cost him his first NBA All-Star Game appearance.

RONNIE BREWER

Shooting guard

Brewer has scored in double digits much more often than not during his first season as a rotation regular, and leads the NBA in steals-to-turnover ratio. He's more athletic than last season's starting 2, but as a second-year pro he doesn't have the leadership skills current Los Angeles Laker Derer Fisher did.

ANDREI KIRILENKO

Small forward

After an offseason in which he asked to be traded, Kirilenko could have been a major distraction. But he's been anything but. The Russian hasn't returned to 2004 All-Star form, but he has shown improved shooting over the past month.

CARLOS BOOZER

Power foward

With 28 double-doubles this season, Boozer seems likely to be chosen for a second straight All-Star Game — where defense is decided afterthought.

MEHMET OKUR

Center

The big Turk started slow, then missed seven games with a strained shoulder. He's played better since returning from the late-December injury, but there's no way Okur will make a second straight All-Star Game appearance.

The bench

JASON HART

Backup point guard

Hart has struggled while playing limited minutes behind Deron Williams, but enjoyed perhaps his best game of the season against his former Los Angeles Clipper teammates on Friday.

KYLE KORVER

Backup shooting guard
