Lakers guard Kobe Bryant said he thought his season might be over after injuring his left ankle during Saturday's 96-91 win over the Mavericks. Bryant, who injured the ankle when he landed on Shawn Marion's foot in the third quarter, said he has a "baseball" growing on the outside of his ankle. "I thought I was done, like done. I was praying that when I stood up, my foot was lined up straight," Bryant said. "I thought I dislocated it." Bryant briefly left the game in the third quarter but was able to return for the fourth. "I just walked around, let it settle in, then went back out. We were all pretty scared because it looked horrible and felt worse," Bryant said. "When I stood up, I was happy it was still lined up. I walked around, my strength felt good. It was a little sore. But I had to stop being a chump, suck it up and go out and play." Bryant finished with 16 points, five rebounds, four assists and three steals in the win over Dallas.
