Koufos will get the start Tuesday, the Salt Lake Tribune's Aaron Falk reports.

Analysis:

Zach Randolph is out with an illness so the Grizzlies opted to keep their front line imposing against a similarly big Jazz frontcourt. Koufos could offer a solid source of rebounds and a good field-goal percentage, but his usage will not reflect Randolph's on a typical night. Look for Jon Leuer to also get in the mix at the four with Randolph out, although it is difficult to envision either replacement option seeing much more than 28 minutes Tuesday.
