The Los Angeles Lakers have said that Kobe Bryant's knee injury will be re-evaluated next week.
The team will look at the shooting guard's fractured left knee once they return from their seven-game road trip.
The 35-year-old, who missed the start of the season with an Achilles injury, damaged the lateral tibial plateau almost six weeks ago.
Bryant has played in just six games this season, averaging 13.8 points per game.
