Utah Jazz: Paul Millsap in, Andrei Kirilenko. out against Memphis tonight

Published: Monday, Nov. 30 2009 11:47 a.m. MST

Backup power forward Paul Millsap will play but backup small forward Andrei Kirilenko will not when the Jazz face the Memphis Grizzlies tonight.

Millsap took part in the Jazz's shootaround this morning, but Kirilenko sat out the session.

Millsap bruised his left knee in the second quarter of last Saturday night's win over Portland, and Kirilenko left in the same period due to tightness in his back.

Neither practiced Sunday.

Kirilenko suggested he hopes to be able to play when the Jazz have their next game after tonight's, Friday night at home vs. Indiana.
