Nov 24 G Kobe Bryant was named the Western Conference Player of the Week for the first time this season (Nov. 16-22), but it was the 25th such honor of his career. That ties Michael Jordan's total, although most of Jordan's nods were leaguewide and not conference specific. Yahoo! Sports

Nov 18 Bryant (groin) scored 40 points (17-of-29 FG, 1-of-3 3Pt, 5-of-5 FT) Tuesday against the Pistons, helping snap a two-game losing streak.

Recommendation: Bryant scored at least 40 points for the 100th time in his career, becoming just the third player ever to reach the century mark (Wilt Chamberlain and Michael Jordan are the others). It's safe to say Bryant, who already has four 40-point games this season, is not going to be bothered by the groin injury going forward.
