Andrei Kirilenko was mentioned in trade talks this past summer, particularly in the 4-team deal that would have sent Carmelo Anthony to the New Jersey Nets.
Since that mega trade didn't go through, Kirilenko talks have surprisingly subsided and all signs look to AK remaining a part of the team for the foreseeable future. "The way Andrei has played for us in the past and the way he played in the preseason, he's a real key to our team,"team GM Kevin O'Connor told The Salt Lake Tribune. "He really competes."
AK has looked solid in the first few games of the Jazz, particularly on Sunday with his defense against Kevin Durant. Maybe AK's stay in Utah will inspire his wife, Masha, to re-open her clothing store Fleur de Lis in downtown Salt Lake? This blogger hopes so.
Also, this funny youtube video of the couple made me laugh. Check it out.
