Pacers forward Danny Granger won't play on Tuesday night against the Jazz, and is targeting Friday's game against the Hawks for his return.

He has missed the team's last nine games with a partially torn tendon in his right foot.

"I'm getting most of it back. Some things I'm still limited with. I have to make sure when I come back I'm definitely ready and I'm not half speed. (The team has) been playing very well," Granger said.
