Los Angeles Lakers center Dwight Howard and forward Pau Gasol are both out indefinitely with injuries, the team said.
Howard suffered a torn labrum in his right shoulder in Sunday's 112-105 loss to the Denver Nuggets and will be re-examined in a week, according to the team.
Gasol took a blow to the face in the fourth quarter Sunday and suffered a concussion. He will not travel with the team.
Howard tied a career high with 26 rebounds and added 14 points and four blocks in 41 minutes of playing time despite the injury, but he had his shoulder wrapped heavily in ice after the game.
Howard originally hurt the shoulder in the second half of the Lakers' 107-102 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday after getting tangled up with Caron Butler.
