Kobe Bryant, who has missed two straight games due to a sprained left ankle, remains a game-time decision for Wednesday’s game in Utah.
“It’s really up to him,” said Phil Jackson. “If he feels like he can play, he’ll play.”
Andrew Bynum, on the other hand, will not be in uniform due to a hip contusion.
“I don’t think Andrew will play,” was Jackson’s quote. “Right now he has kind of resigned himself to the fact that (he won’t play).”
One other piece of injury information from Tuesday is that Lamar Odom missed practice to have an MRI/CAT scan on his sore left foot. Both exams were negative, and Odom is probable for Wednesday.
