NBA: Jazz forward Millsap out with sprained ligament

Associated Press

SALT LAKE CITY — Utah Jazz forward Paul Millsap will miss seven to 10 days because of a sprained knee ligament.

He injured his left knee Tuesday night in Milwaukee, but returned to play the second half in a brace. Millsap is scheduled for another MRI on Monday.

Millsap's string of 15 straight double-doubles ended Tuesday. He has been starting for Carlos Boozer, who has missed 18 straight games because of a strained quad tendon.

The Jazz also listed center Mehmet Okur as doubtful for Friday's game against Dallas because of back spasms.
