Kobe Bryant casually kicked Larry Nance Jr. off the Los Angeles Lakers bench during the first quarter of Tuesday night's game against Dallas.
Bryant was out of commission for the game, resting an injured shoulder. He wanted to sit on the Lakers bench, but there weren't enough seats for everyone, so Nance had to give up his seat and sit on the floor.
That's the way it should work. If there aren't enough seats for everyone, the veterans get priority. Nance is a rookie, while Bryant is the veteran superstar. It's nothing personal.
H/T BDL.
