Kobe Bryant Out For Season
After his fractured left knee injury this season the Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant IS NOT expected to return on the court.
CelebNMusic247.com has learned by a person with knowledge of his situation told USA TODAY Sports on Tuesday. Although no formal announcement has been made about Bryant’s status, the team made the announcement Wednesday (March 12).
Bryant said in a news release:
“Obviously this has been a frustrating and disappointing season, but I appreciate all the support I’ve received from the Lakers and the fans, and look forward to being back and ready for the start of training camp.”
Bryant returned from the Achilles tendon tear he suffered in April on Dec. 8, then fractured his knee six games later and has struggled in his rehabilitation ever since. Bleacher Report first reported that the Lakers would announce this week that the 35-year-old Bryant is out for the season.
Bryant has won five titles and appeared in 16 All-Star games signed a two-year, $48.5 million extension in late November, so this is hardly the end of his storied career.
Only Bryant, point guard Steve Nash, and center Robert Sacre are on contract for next season, though guard Nick Young has a player option worth $1.2 million.
Get well soon Kobe.
