SPARKS TONIGHT

at Utah, 6 PDT

* Site--Delta Center, Salt Lake City.

* Records--Sparks 16-6, Starzz 8-15.

* Record vs. Starzz--2-0.

* Update--The Starzz hope to have Natalie Williams, the WNBA’s No. 3 scorer and No. 2 rebounder, back in uniform tonight after she sat out four games because of a foot injury. In her absence, Utah lost three of four. The Sparks will be down to 10 players. Ukari Figgs will be in Hillsboro, Ala., to attend the funeral of Tiffany Young, a teammate on Purdue’s NCAA championship team who was killed in a Saturday auto accident in Gary, Ind. Figgs will rejoin the Sparks on Friday in Minneapolis for a game against the Lynx. Spark Coach Orlando Woolridge hopes the winning beat his team danced to during its recent 6-0 home stand continues on the road. The Sparks have won 13 of their last 15. The offensive production is coming from Lisa Leslie, Mwadi Mabika and DeLisha Milton, who account for 38 points a game. Point guard Gordana Grubin is shooting 43.8% on three-pointers, sixth in the WNBA.
