Kobe will play Tuesday against Memphis
So Kobe returns healthy. Thats good news!

“I feel good, like a gazelle,” he said after practicing Monday.
Bryant acknowledged that the ankle wasn’t fully healthy but wasn’t concerned about further damaging it.

wouldnt have minded if he took 1 more week off and got to 90-95%…at least he took some time off.
This now means that he plays in his 1,000th game. Congrats Kobe, make it a milestone in a win.
Do we really need him against Memphis ?
The guys beat San Antonio,Portland,Utah and lost bye 2
to Boston.
Let him rest one more game,play him n Dallas.
The west is strong now with Dallas.Denver.
We still need a point guard.
