ONeal May Sit For Bulls Game As Rest Talk Grows
Shaquille O'Neal faces a potential 10 day rest with coach Phil Jackson weighing sitting him against the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday to protect his sore toes. The move could clear the way for a likely All Star absence, while the Lakers await a February 12 matchup with Washington. Jackson emphasized it is a medical decision and denies a Bulls history factor. Meanwhile Marcus Camby of the New York Knicks is out 3 to 6 weeks with a bruised hip after a collision in the loss to Indiana, sidelining him for several games and leaving New York with 11 active players.
