Kobe Bryant (shoulder) a game-time decision against Charlotte
Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Kobe Bryant (shoulder) is headed for a game-time decision Sunday versus the Charlotte Hornets.
Head coach Byron Scott said that Bryant's shoulder issue will be "ongoing" for the remainder of the season, so his owners are going to need to stock up on the aspirin. The future Hall-of-Famer is more of a points league option considering his abysmal shooting percentages and 2.3 turnovers per game. Anthony Brown would likely get the start in his Bryant's absence, but isn't worth a look.
Kobe is averaging 15.7 points, 3.9 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.6 three-pointers per game on 34.6 percent shooting from the field in 39 contests this season. He is setting the floor for the league with a -12.2 nERD.
