LOS ANGELES (AP) Kobe Bryant injured his right shoulder in a collision with Seattle's Reggie Evans in the first minute of the Lakers' game Friday night and left the arena to have an MRI.

There was no immediate report on how badly his shoulder was hurt, although team spokesman John Black said Bryant had jammed it.

Bryant missed six games earlier this season because his right shoulder was sprained.

Bryant was hurt when he ran into Evans, who was setting a pick, with 11:06 remaining in the first quarter. Bryant was sandwiched between Evans and Ray Allen, who was trying to go around Evans.

The Lakers' star earlier missed playing time when he hurt his shoulder in a collision with Cleveland's Kedrick Brown on Jan. 12.

Bryant also was out seven games with a cut on his right index finger. He said he was hurt Jan. 29 when he accidentally put his hand through a glass window while trying to move boxes in his garage.
