Kobe Bryant a game-time decision vs. Suns

The Los Angeles Lakers may once again be without their All-Star shooting guard as they set to face the Phoenix Suns on Sunday night.

Kobe Bryant is considered a game-time decision as he continues to nurse a sore shoulder, coach Byron Scott announced.

The Lakers are 1-4 this year without Bryant, a mark that's on par with their season winning percentage of .206.

Kobe is averaging 17.2 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 3.4 assists while shooting just 34.1 percent from the field and 25.9 percent from three.

Lou Williams should resume his role as the starting shooting guard in Bryant's absence. In Friday's 93-84 win against the Philadelphia 76ers, Williams tied his season high with 24 points.
