Lakers star Kobe Bryant, who missed Sunday's loss to the Jazz because of a sore right Achilles tendon, left Tuesday's win against the Pelicans with the same problem, according to multiple reports.
Bryant, 37, played only 16 minutes Tuesday, and left the Staples Center without speaking to reporters.

"I don't know the extent of it, but obviously, it must be bothering him pretty bad," Lakers coach Byron Scott said (via ESPN.com).
His current problem, in his final NBA season, comes almost two years after he suffered a season-ending torn left Achilles in April 2013.
Scott said he isn't sure if Bryant will play Thursday against the Warriors in what would be his final game in Oakland.
The 19-year veteran is averaging 17.6 points, 4.2 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game.
