Lakers' Odom (bruised lower back) questionable for Game 5

LOS ANGELES -- Los Angeles Lakers forward Lamar Odom is listed as questionable for Tuesday night's Western Conference semifinals Game 5 against the Houston Rockets after an MRI and CT scan showed he has a bruised lower back.

Odom left Sunday's 99-87 loss with back spasms in the third quarter. He was hurt when he drove into the lane and collided with Shane Battier, landing hard on the court.

 Series: Lakers 2, Rockets 2

He remained face down, writhing in pain, for about a minute before slowly rising to his knees, then got up and made his way down the court. He was called for a charging foul and then was given a technical after jawing with an official over the call.

He had two points and six rebounds in about 25 minutes.
