ARTEST FALLS AT HOME, WILL MISS TONIGHT'S GAME

Los Angeles Lakers forward Ron Artest has injuries to his head and left elbow after falling at his home last night. Artest didn't travel with the Lakers for tonight's game at Sacramento after tripping over a box and falling down a flight of stairs. He was treated at UCLA Medical Center, undergoing a CT scan and receiving stitches in the back of his head and his elbow. He's expected to be examined by a neurologist later today, when the Lakers will be able to estimate when Artest can rejoin the team.
