Utah Jazz: D-Will a game-time decision with flu

The Jazz held their morning shootaround today without starting point guard Deron Williams, who stayed home with what the team is calling "stomach flu."

But a Jazz spokesman also said Williams will be a "game-time decision" for tonight's home game tonight against the Denver Nuggets.

The Jazz have only one other point on their roster, combo guard Ronnie Price, because even after trading former backup point Eric Maynor to Oklahoma City last month they still haven't added a requisite 13th player to their roster.

They have until Tuesday to add a 13th, by NBA rule.

Also today, reserve shooting guard Kyle Korver took part in the shootaround and said afterward that he plans to play tonight.

Korver skipped the Jazz's past two games, visits to Minnesota and Oklahoma City, so he could rehab his surgically repaired left knee.
