Contract has NBA return option. Will he be back? I have the feeling we've seen the last of Andrei in a Jazz uni.

AK47 coming back to Utah is about a 50/50 chance. I don't know why I feel this way. Maybe I just don't have strong feelings one way or the other.

Hard to say considering the first half of the season is gone with the entire season now in jeopardy. Might make the most sense for him to just stay over there.

I have just read AK's interview in Russian.

He said that he would still like to return to NBA after the lockout is over.
Also, he mentioned that all money he makes during lockout will go to charity.

If I was Andrey I would stay there and never come back to the Jazz until the team offers him a big role according to his basketball skills.

Due to Sloan this guy is underrated.

First Euroleague game of the season, Kirilenko is already dominating and making it look really easy. At the end of the 3rd CSKA is handily winning by 15 and his statline reads 15 points, 13 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks in 25 minutes. He's singlehandedly altering almost all of Zalgiris' FGAs in the paint. How nostalgic.
