The AP reports:
Utah Jazz center Mehmet Okur is playing for the first time since rupturing his left Achilles’ tendon last season.
The 6-foot-11 forward came off the bench during the first half of Utah’s game against the New Orleans Hornets on Friday night.
Okur was bothered by tendinitis late last season before the rupture occurred during the playoffs against Denver last April.
