EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) -- Kobe Bryant left the court in the final minute of the first half of the Los Angeles Lakers' game against New Jersey on Friday night after spraining his right ankle when he collided with the Nets' Devin Harris on a drive to the basket.

Bryant landed awkwardly on the play with 52 seconds left in the half, was called for an offensive foul and appeared to clutch his ankle.
He returned to the court after halftime and took foul shots, and then played the third quarter.
