Kobe Bryant has said that he felt "really comfortable" during the Los Angeles Lakers' 96-92 win over the Memphis Grizzlies yesterday evening.
The shooting guard, who was playing his sixth game since returning from a ruptured Achilles, finished the night with 21 points.
The 35-year-old told reporters: "I know I'm back when those pull-up jumpers start going, especially against a defender like Tony Allen, who is just breathing all over you and is very physical. I felt really comfortable being able to elevate and shoot through contact.
"Just try to figure it out what you can do and try to keep it as loose as possible throughout the course of the game."
The Lakers play again on Friday, when they host the Minnesota Timberwolves.
