Andrei Kirilenko had 15 points and five assists, and the Utah Jazz beat the short-handed Portland Trail Blazers 93-80 in a preseason game Sunday.
With the exception of center Greg Oden, the Blazers' expected starters for the season rested or out due to injuries.
Carlos Boozer played in his first exhibition game for the Jazz, who led by as many as 19 points. He missed the first two preseason contests due to a sore left hamstring.
Boozer had 12 points and eight rebounds in 15 minutes.
