Andrei Kirilenko (back spasms) is a game-time decision on Friday. Kirilenko must have experienced improvement in his back to be listed as a game-time call, but owners will still need to check back for another update on AK-47 closer to tipoff. He's been out since November 28 and has missed four games so far with the ailment. Josh Howard would likely get another start if Kirilenko can't play.
