    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Forward Andrei Kirilenko left Utah's game against the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday night in the second quarter with a sprained right ankle.

    Kirilenko appeared to roll the ankle while vying for a loose ball on the left sideline with Milwaukee's Ersan Ilyasova. He quickly grabbed his right leg in pain and limped off the court to the Jazz bench, putting no pressure on the leg. </div>

    Damn it, I wonder how bad it is. They haven't had an update on his injury on any of the Utah news sites

    The Jazz are saying that Kirilenko has a severely sprained right ankle. No update on how long he will be out yet.

    Sounds kinky. [​IMG]

    This happened last year for Utah aswell. They got off to a fast start, and then the injuries hit and they ended up missing the playoffs. The overall depth is a little better than last year, but it's going to be tough replacing AK47s defense.

    Maybe Brewer, Milsapp, or Harpring can step up in his absence.

Fortunately, roentgen and other researches showed, that no other problems were detected. Thus, Andrei sprained right ankle only.
    - This injury is pretty serious.- Andrei commented doctor?s conclusion. ? Nevertheless, prognosis is pretty good. Doctors think that it will take me one or two weeks to recover. As for me ? I think that 10 days will be enough for me.</div>

    Now why did I know this very thing was going to happen? It's like an impossible feat for AK47 to stay healthy an entire season, crazy.
