El Segundo, CA (Sports Network) - Los Angeles Lakers guard Kobe Bryant
suffered a nasal fracture during Sunday night's All-Star Game and will be
evaluated further on Tuesday.
Bryant, who surpassed Michael Jordan as the NBA's all-time top scorer in All-
Star Games with a 27-point performance in the West's 152-149 victory over the
East in Orlando, had a CT scan performed following the game which revealed the
fracture.
He was originally scheduled to be evaluated further by ear, nose and throat
specialist Dr. John Rehm on Monday, but that was pushed back to Tuesday,
according to the Lakers' Twitter page.
The 33-year-old has averaged 28.4 points, 5.8 rebounds and 4.9 assists in 34
games during his 16th pro campaign.
