Hip still keeping Kirilenko out for Jazz

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SALT LAKE CITY — Utah forward Andrei Kirilenko will miss Friday’s game at Phoenix and is doubtful for Saturday’s home game against Denver.

Kirilenko injured his right hip Monday when he was knocked down by Dallas’ Dirk Nowitzki, who was called for a flagrant foul on the play. The NBA suspended Nowitzki for one game Wednesday.

Kirilenko did not travel with the Jazz to Phoenix on Thursday.
