Lakers fans everywhere got great news today, when Yahoo! reported that Kobe Bryant has returned to the team’s practice. This is a bit of a surprise, considering Kobe is still recovering from his torn achilles injury that has sidelined him to start the season. It was initially thought that Kobe would be able to return to action in about 2-3 weeks, but that will all depend on how his body responds. Word to D. Rose and Russell Westbrook.
The Lakers have been hanging on in the standings rather well without Kobe this season, even knocking off Dwight Howard and the Rockets with a buzzer beater.
The real question is, how good will the Lakers be with Bryant back on the court?
