Various injuries make Williams game-time decision for Utah


Posted Mar 18 2010 8:08PM

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- Utah guard Deron Williams has a bruised left shoulder and mild left ankle sprain and is a game-time decision for Friday at Phoenix.

The Jazz say Williams had an MRI on his left shoulder on Thursday, which confirmed the bruise. He played through the injury in a win Wednesday over Minnesota, finishing with nine points and 11 assists. He also rolled his ankle late in the first quarter against the Timberwolves, but was able to return in the second.

Forward Andrei Kirilenko is listed as questionable for Friday with a strained left calf, which he aggravated in the third quarter Wednesday.

Guard Wesley Matthews has a mild ligament sprain in his left knee and will also be a game-time decision in Phoenix.
