Former Utah Jazz forward and one-time NBA All-Star Andrei Kirilenko said he's done with playing basketball.

Kirilenko played 10 seasons with the Jazz — bridging the gap between the eras of John Stockton-Karl Malone and Deron Williams-Carlos Boozer. He was named to the NBA All-Star team in 2004.

A uniquely all-around player, the Russia native averaged 11.8 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.8 blocks in his NBA career. He played most of his career in Utah, before moving on to CSKA Moscow, Minnesota, Brooklyn and, finally (for the third time) CSKA Moscow.

Kirilenko, who led Russia to a EuroBasket title in 2007, said there is a small possibility of playing again but also said he's interested in becoming president of the Russian basketball federation.
