Bryant has missed the last three games due to body soreness. The Lakers will be taking on the red hot Phoenix Suns tonight at the Staples Center.
So far this season Lakers head coach Byron Scott has been taking heat for playing Bryant too many minutes. They have been reports of his reducing his minutes going forward. Scott did talk to Mark Medina about Bryant playing a little of the point guard into tonight’s game.
Scott plans to mix Kobe’s role depending on matchups, flow of the game. Could range from running PG, playing SG or SF
