LOS ANGELES — Kobe Bryant aggravated a strained right groin in the Lakers’ loss to Houston but said he’ll be able to keep playing through the injury.

“Treat it, work through it,” Bryant said late Sunday night. “I’ll be all right.”

Bryant initially hurt the groin a week ago against New Orleans. He said it has limited his ability to change directions and it clearly bothered him in the final minutes against Houston, although he said he aggravated it first in the first quarter.

Bryant shot 7 for 17 from the field against Denver on Friday night. He was 5 for 20 against Houston.
