I can't believe the Los Angeles Lakers are actually ok with this.
Despite suffering a torn tendon and broken bone in his pinkie, Kobe Bryant will play in Sunday night's NBA All-Star Game, according to a Lakers spokesperson.
Bryant suffered the injury -- initially described as a dislocated pinkie -- on Feb. 5 against New Jersey. The Lakers disclosed Thursday that the damage was more extensive than first thought. The injury included a torn radial collateral ligament and an avulsion fracture in the pinkie.
