Brooklyn Nets star Andrei Kirilenko will not travel with his teammates for their three-game West Coast trip.
The Russian forward is suffering from back spasms that have bothered him since pre-season, according to CBS Sports.
As a result, he will miss games against the Sacramento Kings, Phoenix Suns and Los Angeles Clippers.
Kirilenko is averaging 5.8 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1 assist in 13.3 minutes per game so far this season.
