Even with point guard Deron Williams out for two weeks with a sprained ankle, Jazz Coach Jerry Sloan will not move former All-Star Andrei Kirilenko off the bench and into the starting lineup.

Sloan has started C.J. Miles at forward, with Kirilenko coming off the bench this preseason.

"I hope that works out," said Sloan. "Andrei's played awfully well coming off the bench.

"I think he's made those guys (other Jazz subs) better," Sloan added. "I think he's made those guys a little more comfortable playing the game, and the way he played in the game (Saturday night at Chicago) was really refreshing, because he was playing against a bigger guy, and that puts a lot of pressure on the bigger guy to have to play him."
