NBA PLAYOFFS

Utah’s Andrei Kirilenko misses practice because of visa problem

Utah Jazz forward Andrei Kirilenko missed practice today because of a problem with his visa, a day before Utah plays host to the Lakers in Game 6 of the Western Conference semifinals.

A Jazz spokesman says the Russian was absent because he was resolving a visa issue. No other details were immediately available.

The Jazz returned to Utah early today after a 111-104 loss in Los Angeles, putting the Lakers up 3-2 in the series.
