At least two players were at less than full strength at Illinois' practice Wednesday.

Shaun Pruitt (ankle) took the court for about half of practice, but his time was limited as the session moved forward. He wore an aircast on his left ankle after stepping on a teammate's foot in practice Sunday. Bruce Weber said Pruitt probably will be a game-time decision Saturday against Arizona.
Rodney Alexander is being slowed by the stomach flu. The junior college transfer, who has started his first seven games at Illinois, did not practice Wednesday. Weber said he expects Alexander will be able to play Saturday.
