Andrei Kirilenko back with Nets, probably won’t travel for road games

Andrei Kirilenko, who has fallen out of the Nets’ rotation, left the team.

Brooklyn reportedly discussed a trade with the 76ers and Jazz, but a family issue has complicated the situation.

So, Kirilenko is back with the Nets in a limited capacity.

Billy King said that Andrei Kirilenko is back practicing with the team today.

Billy King didn't rule out the possibility of Andrei Kirilenko returning to the rotation. "As I told AK, things change."

Andrei Kirilenko said that because of his personal situation he's unlikely to travel with the Nets for the foreseeable future.

Andrei Kirilenko said that his personal family situation won't be resolved until early Feb. He declined to talk in detail about the issue.

It’s difficult to see Kirilenko returning to the rotation. Lionel Hollins didn’t want to play Kirilenko when he was fully available. I don’t see the Nets disrupting their continuity to squeeze him in for only home games now.

This still probably ends with Brooklyn trading or waiving him.
