Kobe Bryant is ready to put his No. 24 jersey back on.After seven missed games due to tenosynovitis of the shin dating back to April 7, Bryant told reporters following L.A.’s win at Golden State that he’d play at San Antonio on Friday.
“Why not?” he said in the tunnel outside the visitor’s locker room. “I’m good.”
So good, in fact, that he came out of an intense pregame workout that included running and jumping at full speed with no pain. He said that, if needed, he could play all 48 minutes against the Spurs.In the meantime, Bryant has appreciated what his teammates have done to win five of the seven Kobe-less contests, including Wednesday’s 99-87 victory featuring Pau Gasol’s 22-11-11 triple-double.
