Andrew Bynum is done for the year - Says Phil Jackson

Coach Phil Jackson acknowledged Monday for the first time that injured center Andrew Bynum’s chances of playing again this season were "remote."

Jackson was asked a question about the difficulty of hurriedly pairing Bynum with Pau Gasol and possibly messing up the Lakers’ chemistry when he said Bynum might not be able to return from a left kneecap injury.

"I think without a doubt that Andrew would come off the bench and we would play him a little bit off the bench if there was any chance that he could come back and play again, but it’s such a remote thing," he said. "We’re not seriously thinking about it." [LA Daily News]
