Kobe Hurting? Kobe Bryant sat out both of the Lakers' practices Friday because of a foot injury. Which foot? The Lakers won't tell us, which makes me think the injury is not all that serious. Bryant will suffer his share of minor injuries in 2012-13, but this is probably nothing to be too concerned about a month away from real games.
Celtics Felled by Fenerbahce Ulker, Green Looks Good: The Lakers lost by six in Instanbul to one of the better Euroleague squads. The result was not all that important, but Jeff Green scored 16 points off the bench on 7-of-10 shooting in his first game since May of 2011. Former Ohio State product Jared Sullinger also put up 16 off the bench, and it will be worth tracking his progress once the Celtics start playing against NBA big men.
