The Los Angeles Lakers played their first pre-season game against the Denver Nuggets in San Diego, California. The game was also Kobe Bryant’s first since last December when he injured his left knee.
He dropped 13 points and dished 5 dimes in 21 minutes of playing time. He dismissed any concerns over his body or recovery by wooing the crowd early on with tough fadeaway jumpers and spectacular passing in the paint. Although he would be on some type of minutes limit during the season, Bryant definitely seems determined to contribute in every which way possible.
Here’s a video of the highlights of his first game back:
