<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Evolution involves tiny, gradual progress occasionally interrupted by a big jolt. Lineups evolve that way, too. For the Jazz, the jolt arrived, with annoying predictability, on Saturday, when Andrei Kirilenko landed awkwardly on his right foot. The starting forward, fourth on the team in minutes, figures to miss at least a handful of games while his sprained ankle heals. Kirilenko was examined on Sunday, and he received additional treatment on his ankle, the same one that cost him seven games last November. The Jazz expect to evaluate him and Gordan Giricek, out indefinitely with a sore right Achilles, today. But the coming shuffle to distribute Kirilenko's playing time will only temporarily mask the slow evolution that Jerry Sloan's lineups were undertaking already. The Jazz coach has been experimenting with playing time for rookie Paul Millsap, and Sloan likes what he has seen so far.</div> <div align="center">Source</div>
