Posted: 11:36 AM- The Utah Jazz will be a man short as they try to break their losing streak Thursday in San Antonio. Matt Harpring, who missed Tuesday's win over the Clippers because of illness, won't make the trip. He is said to be getting better, but isn't over the stomach virus enough to play.
The Jazz did get some good news before Wednesday's practice, as medical exams on Andrei Kirilenko came back clear, and he is listed as probable. Kirilenko suffered a mild concussion in the first half on Tuesday as he tried to guard Corey Maggette. Maggette went up strong with the ball, hitting Kirilenko in the chin and the forehead in the process.
He was held out of Wednesday's practice as a precaution. Kirilenko had 23 points, nine rebounds and five assists against the Spurs in the first meeting between the teams this year. Harpring had 13 points and 12 rebounds.
