It will take drastic circumstances for Los Angeles Lakers star shooting guard Kobe Bryant not to play in Sunday’s game against the Golden State Warriors, according to coach Byron Scott.
“You’d probably have to amputate his leg for him not to play tomorrow,” Scott said at practice on Saturday. “You guys know that. If he feels 20 percent better than he felt last night, he’s going to say, ‘I’m good.’ So again, I never scratch him out of anything except practice. When it comes to playing, he’s the one guy that I know that if he can walk, he’s probably going to play.”
