But there is not much time for Bryant to rest his sprained ankle, not with so many games on the horizon. He didn't practice Thursday, but Bryant plans to play tonight against Atlanta at Staples Center. "We expected it to be score after playing," said Bryant, who had 24 points on 10-for-17 shooting in a loss to the Hornets. "We'll treat it and see how it responds." After Wednesday's game, Bryant said his ankle was about 50 percent healthy. It's the kind of injury that could linger for a while, and he doesn't know when it'll be back to 100 percent. "I think we can nip it in the bud," he said.</div> Source
I think Kobe shouldve sat out against the hornets and any other game until his ankle heals. its hard to heal an ankle while playing on it?

Kobe is a gamer though, and he knows his body very well, so if he felt good enough to play you have to trust his decision.
