Bryant scored 44 points on 15-of-34 shooting in Sunday's loss to the Warriors. Bryant was experiencing flu-like symptoms leading up to Sunday's contest, but he persevered and produced at the rate we're used to seeing this season. Outside of Friday's nine-point (1-14 FG) showing against the Spurs, Bryant has scored at least 19 points in each game, though he's been maligned for his efficiency, or lack thereof. The 36-year-old Bryant, never lacking confidence, is shooting only 37.7 percent this season, which is by far a career-low. Given how poorly the Lakers have played this season, Bryant's high production, low efficiency ways will likely continue as he attempts to keep them in games.
