Kobe has missed past three games



LOS ANGELES – Kobe Bryant, the NBA's second-leading scorer, missed his third straight game due to a sprained right ankle Sunday when the Los Angeles Lakers faced the Orlando Magic.

Bryant, injured late in a 119-109 win at Dallas last Tuesday night, did not dress for the game against the Magic. Previously, he sat out a 101-99 victory at San Antonio and a 113-106 triumph over Atlanta.

The Lakers also are without guard Ron Harper, who is on the injured list with a sore left knee.

Lakers coach Phil Jackson said before Sunday's game he wouldn't speculate as to when Bryant will return.

"I'm just not going to say a day," Jackson said. "We're taking it one day at a time."

The Lakers return to action Wednesday night in Denver.
