Kobe Bryant jokes shoulder injury came from passing too much

Kobe-Bryant

The possibility exists that a torn rotator cuff could bring to an end the season for Kobe Bryant, which would be his third consecutive to be cut short due to injury.

Bryant is reportedly taking the weekend to make a decision on surgery. However, he appeared to be in good spirits on Friday, atleast for the few seconds it takes to send a tweet.

Kobe joked that his injury is a result of what happens when he passes too much.

This is what happens when I pass too much! #ShoulderShock thank u all for ur thoughts and prayers #team @DrinkBODYARMOR @Lakers #oneluv

— Kobe Bryant (@kobebryant) January 23, 2015

With games this season of 11, 12, 13, and 17 assists, Bryant may be onto something. In all seriousness, Bryant’s shoulder has been giving him problems since the preseason, which may have contributed to the games he’s missed recently.

Bryant has one year left on the contract extension he signed and if there’s one person you would bet on not going out due to an injury, Kobe Bryant would have to be pretty high on the list.
