Kobe still winless after Suns beat Lakers

Goran Dragic scored 31 points and the Phoenix Suns beat the Lakers 114-108 on Tuesday night, keeping Los Angeles winless with Kobe Bryant back in the lineup.

Bryant led the Lakers with 20 points while playing 29 mostly sharp minutes in his second game back from a nearly eight-month absence with a torn Achilles tendon.

Bryant led a fourth-quarter rally by the Lakers, who got within four points with three minutes left before Phoenix held on for its first three-game winning streak of the season.
