Andrei Kirilenko did not practice on Wednesday due to an illness. There is something going around in the Timberwolves locker room as Alexey Shved and Lazar Hayward are also sick and missed practice on Wednesday. AK-47 should be considered questionable for Thursday's game against the Clippers until we know more.

The Wolves lost their third straight game on Sunday despite Andrei Kirilenko putting up nine points, 11 rebounds, two assists, three steals and one block, without any turnovers. Kirilenko and Josh Smith are the only players in the NBA averaging at least 1.4 steals and 1.4 blocks per game, and AK also chips in 0.6 threes, 6.6 rebounds and 3.1 assists. He's locked into a major role with Kevin Love out of commission, and remains one of the nicest surprises of the season.

Andrei Kirilenko had 21 points, six boards, five assists and two 3-pointers on 7-of-11 shooting in Tuesday's win over the Hawks. Kirilenko didn't have a steal or block, but his 3-pointers helped stop a late run by the Hawks and allowed the Wolves to hang on for the win. He's having a fantastic season and is hot right now, averaging 16 points, six boards, three assists, a block and nearly a 3-pointer per game over his last five.

Andrei Kirilenko scored 14 points with four boards, three assists, three blocks and one 3-pointer in 33 minutes against the Nuggets on Thursday. It was the first time he made a 3-pointer in six games and the three blocks were his highest total since December 7th. Kirilenko will be well worth starting in all lineup as long as his troublesome back doesn't bother him.

Andrei Kirilenko logged 34 minutes in Saturday's game, scoring 20 points on 10-of-13 shooting with five rebounds and four assists. AK didn't have any steals or blocks tonight, but he played with great energy and bounced back from three sub-par games. Keep him in your lineups for the Wolves' upcoming three-game week.

Andrei Kirilenko had just eight points, five rebounds, two steals and a block on 2-of-6 shooting in 29 minutes on Wednesday. Kirienko is struggling right now, hitting just 7-of-22 shots over his last three games, and averaging seven points, four rebounds and less than two assists over that stretch. He should bounce back soon, so keep rolling him out there as he works his way out of the funk.

Andrei Kirilenko was stifled by foul trouble on Sunday, eventually fouling out with four points, three rebounds and two steals in just 20 minutes. Carmelo Anthony got the better of Kirilenko (and the Wolves) tonight, but at least AK will be supremely rested for Wednesday's game vs. the Rockets. He has fouled out of the past two games (vs. Kevin Durant and Melo) after not committing more than three fouls in the Wolves' first 23 games.

Andrei Kirilenko scored 21 points on 10-of-16 shooting (no threes) with 11 rebounds, two assists, one steal, and one block in Friday's win over the Hornets. Kirilenko logged a whopping 39 minutes and secured his fifth double-double of the year. If Kevin Love misses any time, he is a strong bet for the pinball numbers he was putting up earlier in the year.

Andrei Kirilenko hit 6-of-12 shots for 18 points, four rebounds, two assists, four steals and a block in Wednesday's win over the Nuggets. He's been back in action for two games from a back injury and has filled the stat sheet in both of them. If he can stay healthy, he'll help fantasy owners across the board, so make sure he wasn't dropped in your league.

Andrei Kirilenko (back) returned to action on Friday against the Cavs, scoring eight points on 4-of-5 shooting with seven rebounds, six assists, four steals, and three blocks in 31 minutes. Flirting with a 5x5 night is our idea of a return game. Get him back into lineups ASAP.
