LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Los Angeles Lakers say Kobe Bryant won’t play in Wednesday night’s preseason finale because of an injury suffered in the team’s first preseason game against the Clippers.

The team says Bryant is being listed as day-to-day. The Lakers say an MRI revealed that Bryant had torn a ligament in his right wrist.

The Lakers face the Clippers again on Wednesday night.

They open the regular season at home against the Chicago Bulls on Christmas Day.
