Kobe Bryant went down with a "severe ankle sprain" in the final seconds of the Los Angeles Lakers' loss on Wednesday night. While trying to fight back in a tight game on the road against the Atlanta Hawks, Kobe Bryant pulled up for a baseline jumper and missed. But more importantly, Bryant fell down awkwardly and appeared to roll his ankle as he landed.The injury occurred with the Lakers trailing by two, after Bryant put up a baseline jumper that slid off the rim with 3 seconds remaining. As he came down, his left foot landed on defender Dahntay Jones’ right foot, twisting awkwardly as Bryant crumpled to the court.With the Lakers trailing by two points in the final seconds, Bryant misfired on a potential game-tying jumper and injured his ankle when he landed on Dahntay Jones' foot. Bryant immediately fell to the ground, grabbed his ankle and began writhing in pain.
