Utah Jazz forward Andrei Kirilenko left tonight?s game at the 7:04 mark of the first quarter of the Jazz?s 116-110 win over Dallas at EnergySolutions Arena. He was injured during a fall following a flagrant foul by the Mavericks? Dirk Nowitzki. Initial x-rays taken on Kirilenko?s right hip at the arena were inconclusive and he was transported to a local hospital for further x-rays.
X-rays at the hospital were negative, and although he returned to the arena, he did not return to the game. Kirilenko has a sprained right hip and will be re-evaluated tomorrow. He is listed as day-to-day.
