Kobe shoots poorly after announcing retirement plans

UNDATED (AP) — Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant announced Sunday that he would retire at the end of the season. On Sunday night, he demonstrated why he's leaving the game.

The 17-time All-Star shot just 4-for-20 from the field while scoring 13 points in the Lakers' 107-103 loss to Indiana. Bryant missed 15 of his first 17 shots before hitting two late in the game.

Bryant was badly outplayed by Paul George, who hit five of his 10 3-point attempts and scored 39 points in leading the Pacers to their fifth straight victory. Monta Ellis added 15 points and six assists to the win.

Bryant made his retirement announcement in a post on The Players' Tribune, saying his heart and mind can handle another season, but his body knows it's time to say goodbye. He ranks third on the NBA's career scoring list with 32,683 points. He's won two Olympic gold medals and earned five NBA titles.

But this season has been a struggle. He is averaging just over 15 points on a career-worst 30 percent shooting in 13 games, numbers that have contributed to the Lakers' 2-14 start.

The 12-0 Tigers picked up 53 of the 61 first-place votes after holding off South Carolina. The other eight go to second-ranked Alabama, which wrapped up the SEC West title with a win over Auburn.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL-COACHES

Richt out at Georgia

UNDATED (AP) — Longtime Georgia coach Mark Richt is out of a job as the fallout from unfulfilled expectations begins in college football.

He has stepped down in what Richt calls a mutual decision.

The Bulldogs are 9-3 and bowl bound, but the losses to Tennessee, Alabama and Florida ruined any chances for the goal of winning an SEC title. Georgia was picked to win the SEC East.

Richt was 145-51 in 15 seasons.

Elsewhere:

— Virginia Tech has hired Memphis' Justin Fuente as its next football coach. He will replace Frank Beamer who's departing after 29 years. The 39-year-old Fuente has spent the past four seasons turning a struggling program into a winner. The Tigers went 10-3 last season and are heading to a bowl game with a 9-3 mark this season.

— Rutgers has fired coach Kyle Flood and athletic director Julie Hermann. The Scarlet Knights just finished a 4-8 season that was a mess on and off the field. Flood was suspended for three games for making inappropriate contact with a professor regarding a player's academics, and seven players have been arrested since August.

— Mike London has resigned as Virginia head coach after failing to produce a winning season in five of his six years. London had a 27-46 record at the school.

— Toledo's Matt Campbell will be Iowa State's new football coach, a person briefed on the decision has told The Associated Press. Campbell will replace Paul Rhoads, who was fired a week ago after seven seasons leading the Cyclones.

TOP 25 BASKETBALL-SCHEDULE

Shockers lose again

UNDATED (AP) — The good news for 20th-ranked Iowa State is that injured forward Anton Grady was able to fly back with the team from Orlando, Florida. The bad news is that the Shockers likely will drop out of the top 25 after going 0-3 in the AdvoCare Invitational.

Wichita State is just 2-4 after Jarrod Uthoff scored 22 points to lead Iowa's 84-62 rout of the Shockers in the tournament's seventh-place game. Uthoff had 13 points as the Hawkeyes took a commanding 40-21 halftime lead.

Eric Hamilton had a team-high 14 points for the Shockers, whose slide began when Grady fell face-first following a collision during the tournament opener against Alabama.

Grady was recovering from what doctors believe is a spinal cord concussion that showed no signs of trauma. The school said Grady is walking with assistance.
