LOS ANGELES, Calif. - Kobe Bryants torn right rotator cuff will be re-examined Monday before the Los Angeles Lakers decide whether the superstar guard needs potentially season-ending surgery.Bryant was examined Friday in Los Angeles after the third-leading scorer in NBA history tore his rotator cuff Wednesday in New Orleans.We know its a tear, but we dont know to what degree, coach Byron Scott said Friday in San Antonio. Monday well find out if hes going to have surgery or not. Thats disappointing in of itself. We know were going to miss him for a length of time, we just dont know how long yet.A completely torn rotator cuff typically requires surgery and several months of rehabilitation, which means Bryants 19th NBA season could be over. Bryants previous two seasons also ended early due to injuries.A partial tear sometimes can be managed while an athlete continues to play, but the Lakers have declined to specify the severity of Bryants tear.Yet its clear the 36-year-old Bryant has a major injury for the third straight season, his famously resilient body finally wearing down from the accumulated grind of nearly two decades with the Lakers and numerous long post-season runs.He tore his Achilles tendon in April 2013, and he played in just six games last season before breaking a bone near his left knee.Hes one of the toughest guys Ive ever been around as far as dealing with injuries and things like that, and being able to come back, Scott said after the Lakers morning shootaround in San Antonio. Everybody said he was done after the Achilles, and he came back pretty strong. Knowing him the way I know him, I know he doesnt want to go out this way. I think he will rehab it if thats the case, and then well wait and see.Team physician Steve Lombardo confirmed the initial diagnosis and discussed treatment options with Bryant on Friday. Bryant will be examined again by Neal ElAttrache of the Kerlan Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic on Monday, and theyll decide whether Bryant should have surgery.Bryant joked about the injury on his Twitter account Friday: This is what happens when I pass too much!Bryant was injured while throwing down a two-handed dunk in the Lakers loss to the Pelicans. He travelled home before the Lakers played at San Antonio on Friday night.Bryant has sat out eight games in the last month to rest, so the struggling Lakers (12-31) have grown used to playing without their top scorer.Bryant felt shoulder pain at the beginning of the season, but hadnt mentioned it lately. The Lakers believe Bryants torn rotator cuff occurred on the dunk.I said, Are you all right? Scott recalled. He was like, Yeah, Im good, just bothering me a little bit. Once I get warmed up, Im fine. After that point, I never thought about it.Although the Lakers rested Bryant extensively this season to preserve the wear on his high-mileage body, Scott still laments playing Bryant for too many minutes in early-season games. Bryant has been on a strict 32-minute limit over the past month.The Lakers repeatedly have said theyre determined to preserve Bryants health into next season, when he is due to make $25 million. Los Angeles has struggled on the court for two straight seasons, but Bryant remains one of the worlds most popular athletes, with his presence essentially guaranteeing a sellout in arenas across North America.Bryant is the NBAs highest-paid player at $23.5 million this season.___AP freelancer Raul Dominguez in San Antonio contributed to this report.

In the days leading up to the draft, TSN.ca and TSN Radio basketball analyst Duane Watson looks at some of the names that will be headlining the event. Tonight, Michigans Nik Stauskas of Mississauga, Ontario. Watch the 2014 NBA Draft on TSN, Thursday at 7pm et/4pm pt. Name: Nik Stauskas From: Mississauga, Ontario Played: University of Michigan Height: 66 Weight: 207 Position: Shooting Guard 2013-2014 Stats: 17.5 points, .442 3P%, 3.3 assists Breakout Game: 26 points, 5 assists, 5 rebounds in win vs. Iowa Jan 22nd. Accolades: 2013 - 14 Big 10 Player of the Year, Second team All-American Draft Projection: Middle of first round Comparable NBA player: Tim Hardaway, Jr. Nik Stauskas has become the poster boy for “hard work pays off.” After a solid freshman season, helping the Wolverines to compete in the NCAA championship game, two key teammates in Trey Burke (Naismith Player of the Year) and Tim Hardaway Jr. (NBA All-Rookie First Team) moved on to the pros. In only his sophomore year, Stauskas was expected to be a team leader, so he spent his summer adding muscle mass, working on his lateral quickness and creating his own shot off the dribble. Stauskass YouTube videos offer a glimpse into his incredible work ethic and the results of his second year were apparent;; a Big 10 title and trip to the Elite Eight in the NCAA Tournament for the Wolverines, while leading the team in scoring and assists and named Big 10 Player of the Year.dddddddddddd Stauskass greatest skill is his ability to flat-out shoot the ball. Unquestionably the best shooter in the draft with a quick release, Stauskas has little issue getting his shot off. His playmaking has improved and he can facilitate for others off of the pick-and-roll, forcing defenders to play him honestly. His quickness allows him to beat slower defenders off the dribble, rounding out his offensive game to be more than simply a spot-up shooter. On the defensive end, Stauskas needs some work, particularly with strength and quickness defending at the next level. Not a surprising drawback to elite shooters, but not one that cant be compensated for in team defences. Stauskas refuses to back down and that refusal to lose is one of those intangibles sought in any NBA prospect. When told that he would only be a shooter, Stauskas rounded out his game. When told that he couldnt carry a team, he led them deep into the NCAA Tournament. Steps to improve his defensive game are already underway, as any obstacle that is put in front of Stauskas has been overcome. His drive, couple
