Odom won't play Sunday
Lamar Odom shot some baskets in practice, but later said his injured right knee isn't sound enough to allow him to play Sunday against the Miami Heat. He sounded dejected as he spoke about his injury after a light workout. He remains uncertain when he will play again. He suffered a bone bruise Tuesday against the New Orleans Hornets and has missed two games.
Here's more from the Lakers' sixth man: "It doesn't have the strength I want it to have. I can play with pain. My life is painful. I'm living it, you know what I'm saying? So, a knee? It's not ready. It's not stable enough."
Odom attended Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers, but did not make an appearance on the Lakers' bench. He spent most of the time in the training room getting treatment. He said he did not wish to be seen by Lakers fans. "I'm still sad about my injury," he said. "I haven't gotten over it yet."
