Australian NBA star Andrew Bogut is reportedly set to miss up to four games for the Golden State Warriors with a groin injury.

Bogut had scans at the weekend on a bruised pelvis suffered during Friday's win over the Memphis Grizzlies.

The 29-year-old seemed hurt after being accidentally kneed by centre Marc Gasol while trying to defend a lay-up and was subsequently ruled of Monday's 89-84 loss to the New York Knicks.

"These things happen. No ill feeling to Gasol just a move I need to work on in the summer :) Glad the berries are intact. I'll be alright....." Bogut posted on Twitter.

But media reports out of the US claim Bogut could spend the next four to seven days on the sidelines, which includes matches against Dallas, San Antonio, Sacramento and Utah.
