In this past weekend's all star game there was an unusually hard foul from Dwayne Wade to Kobe Bryant in which D Wade wrapped his arms around Kobe's head. The all star game is known for just being a fun game in where the final score really doesn't matter all that much, because no team wants one of their superstars to fall to injury. When Dwayne Wade's elbow connected to Kobe's nose in the third quarter of the game, he appeared to have a bloody nose, but it was later confirmed that it had been broken. Many people there were shocked and after the Wade apologized for the "accident", so it was just forgotten about. Two days after that hit, it was confirmed that Kobe suffered a concussion, which could be a long and pesky injury. The Lakers have publicly stated that they are not happy with Wade's actions and some player have talked about retaliation. Their respective squads meet Sunday, so it could get chippy. We will have to see how long these injuries bother Kobe.
