Andrei Kirilenko Eyeing Russian Basketball Presidency

At the tender age of 34, Utah Jazz legend and former NBA All-Star Andrei Kirilenko is already settling into retired life. The multi-talented forward known to most as “AK-47″ elected to end his basketball career earlier this summer after plying his trade in Russia and the NBA for the better part of two decades.

Of course, Kirilenko’s definition of “settling” may be slightly different from ours. Much as he was in his playing days, changing the game and creating chaos on the hardwood, the former Jazzman is a bundle of activity in retirement.
