NEW YORK, July 29 (UPI) -- Utah Starzz center Margo Dydek was suspended for one game after exceeding the league's flagrant foul penalty points limit, the WNBA announced on Monday.

Dydek has accumulated five flagrant foul points, one over the league limit. She committed a flagrant foul on Phoenix's Jaynetta Saunders in Friday's 74-61 victory for her fifth point of the season. She will miss Utah's game with Miami on Wednesday.

Dydek, the tallest player in league history at 7-2, is averaging 13.3 points and 9.4 rebounds this season and leads the league with 91 blocks. A native of Poland, she recorded the second triple-double in the history of the league last season.
