Kobe Bryant's finger is still bothering him. The Lakers star will see a doctor in Los Angeles to determine whether he'll play in the All-Star game this weekend.
Bryant, who dislocated his right pinky last week, scored 29 points in 35 minutes in Wednesday's easy win at Minnesota. Bryant sat out the fourth quarter and had an X-ray after the game.
Coach Phil Jackson says he'd prefer Bryant not play in the All-Star game.
