While Kobe Bryant again sat out, Andrew Bynum cleaned up.

Pulling down the first 30-rebound game in the NBA in more than two years, Bynum made Bryant’s third missed game in a row an afterthought by the time theLos Angeles Lakers finished off the San Antonio Spurs 98-84 on Wednesday night.

The 7-footer became the first player with 30 rebounds in a game since Minnesota’s Kevin Love corralled 31 against the New York Knicks in 2010. Bynum also had 16 points while joining Love as the only two players in the past 12 years to hit the 30-rebound mark.

“It’s great to have 30 boards, but my shot’s not working and I’m (a) little upset about that,” said Bynum, who was 7 of 20 from the field. “For me, I’ll remember shooting poorly.”
