Kobe bryant Back InjuryKobe has an electronic stimulation device hooked up to his sore lower back. He should have that device on for the next couple of days leading to game 5 on wednesday. He injured his back in the opening minutes of Sunday’s 123-115 overtime loss at Utah that tied the Western Conference semifinals 2-2.

When asked how he felt he replied,“It’s pretty sore right now, It’s tight. It’s to be expected the next day, I guess. I don’t know how I made it through the game, to be honest with you.”

Having a somewhat long rest with game 5 on wednesday gives the Lakers enough time to heal up from injuries. Phil Jackson told the media that Kobe will play on wednesday.
