Kobe Bryant at age 37 looked like Kobe Bryant at age 27, scoring on his trademark fadeaway from the post, converting an up-and-under move in the lane and even dunking during a Lakers scrimmage Thursday.
It became secondary when D'Angelo Russell limped off the court at the end of practice. The rookie was playing despite a bone bruise in the bottom of his right foot but couldn't hide how much his foot was hurting.
Russell tried to downplay the soreness and semi-jokingly knocked an iPhone out of Roy Hibbert's hands when Hibbert tried to snap a picture of the foot.
