Not only was Kobe breaking records Sunday night, but a CT Scan after the game revealed he broke his nose! Kobe will be seen by a specialist today, to determine how serious the Nasal Fracture is. He hurt his nose after a foul from Dwayne Wade, which drew blood, Bryant got his nose plugged, and finished the game.
Kobe needed 19 points to pass Michael Jordan on the All Time, All Star game scoring list. Kobe finished the game with 27 points, becoming the All Time leading scorer. On his way to the record he also passed Oscar Robertson, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
Bryant is a 14 time all star, and is tied with KG for most all star appearances.
Dwayne Wade said this about Kobe, "Tonight, he does what he normally does," Wade said of Bryant. "He got 27. He's Kobe Bryant. He scores the ball. He's a tough cover. But it's great being a little piece of history. He's one of the best of all time. We will one day say we had the honor of playing against one of the greatest players to ever play the game of basketball."
