Bryant will start Sunday's game against the Pistons and is considered questionable for Monday's matchup with Suns, Mike Trudell of Lakers.com reports.

Analysis:

Bryant sat out Tuesday and Wednesday due to a nagging back injury, but he was back on the floor Friday, scoring 19 points in a season-high 32 minutes as the Lakers fell to the Mavericks. The veteran isn't expected to be limited Sunday, and coach Byron Scott said the team will wait until Monday to decide whether Bryant will play in both halves of the back-to-back set.
