Barring any unforeseen setbacks, Jazz forward Andrei Kirilenko plans to play against the Lakers in Game 3 of the team's semifinal series on Saturday night.

"I feel good," said Kirilenko. "I think it's a very good break and those extra four days will definitely help prepare me better."

Kirilenko went through a full practice on Monday and was active in Tuesday's shootaround. He hasn't played in a full game since mid-March after aggravating his left calf strain last month.

"I was talking with the coaches and doctors and I've been pushing them to let me come back but they've been smart. They told me I wasn't going to play many minutes if I came back [Game 2] and they would rather me wait three-four more days so I could be more ready and get more minutes in Game 3," the forward added.
