Kobe Bryant was unable to practice today with flu-like symptoms. According to ESPN Lakers beat writer McMenamin he is a game time decision for tonight’s Lakers game against the Pacers. Maybe he will take a page out of the Michael Jordan book and make a go of it regardless. Even though it’s not playoff time, the Lakers are in need of some wins bad to get back in the hunt in the Western Conference. It may say something about their lack of depth, but it’s not all that encouraging for Lakers fans that with Nash already out, if Kobe does miss the game they will have a starting backcourt of Jodie Meeks and Darius Morris? Ugh…
Kobe Bryant was not at shootaround Tuesday because of flu-like symptoms. He will be a game-time decision against the Pacers.
