What they’re saying: Kobe to hang it up

Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant has decided to retire after this season.

The 37-year-old Bryant made the announcement in a post on The Players' Tribune on Sunday.

The announcement, while not totally unsurprising, evoked a lot of responses on social media.

Here's what people had to say:

The @Lakers @KobeBryant was absolutely a SOLID GOLD PTPER / thnx Kobe 4 all the incredible & magical moments/HALL OF FAMER #ALLTIMEGREAT
