--G Deron Williams continued his torrid start to the season, finishing with 27 points and nine assists against the Spurs. Through five games, Williams is averaging 23.2 points and 8.8 assists a game.

--G Ronnie Brewer had 10 points and five rebounds in 32 minutes but didn't play in the fourth quarter as Wesley Matthews gave a strong effort and Jazz coach Jerry Sloan opted to keep the undrafted rookie in the game.

--C Kosta Koufos continues to struggle to find a place in the Jazz's rotation. Koufos has played more than three minutes in only one of the team's first five games. He came off the bench for the final 1:47 Thursday against San Antonio.

MEDICAL WATCH:

--G C.J. Miles (thumb surgery) is likely out until December after needing surgery to repair a torn ligament in his left thumb suffered during a preseason practice. Miles will wear a cast for four weeks before beginning rehab. The injury is further complicated by the fact it is to Miles' shooting hand. Miles had 16 points in the Jazz's first preseason game.

--G Kyle Korver (knee surgery) is expected to miss six weeks after undergoing arthroscopic surgery Oct. 28 in New York to remove a bone spur from his left knee. The Jazz have yet to set an official timetable with respect to Korver, who was able to play in only one of the team's preseason games while battling knee soreness.

--F Matt Harpring (ankle, knee problems) remains on the Jazz's roster but is unlikely to play again. Harpring continues to deal with the effects of a devastating infection that followed ankle surgery in 2008 as well as the effects of multiple knee surgeries throughout his career. Harpring did not join the Jazz for training camp or the preseason, remaining at home with his family in Atlanta.
