New Los Angeles Lakers trio Roy Hibbert, Lou Williams and Brandon Bass have revealed that they have not spoken to Kobe Bryant yet.

All three players were introduced to press at the team's practice facility, but when asked whether or not they had spoken to Bryant, they all remained silent.

Hibbert then shook his head while Bass smiled, suggesting that none of the three latest signings have been given any welcome from the Lakers shooting guard yet.

Bryant is entering the final year of his contract, but is currently recovering from shoulder surgery after suffering an injury in January.

The five-time champion and third all-time leading scorer in the NBA turns 37 next month, and is not expected to sign a new deal.
