Kobe Bryant is going to retire. That’s something every fan of the Los Angeles Lakers had come to grips with in recent years as he’s been dealing with a multitude of injuries and a declining physical skill-set. But now we know that this is it. The 2015-16 NBA season is going to end.
Kobe announced that he will be retiring at the end of this season in a poem published in The Player’s Tribune on Sunday evening. The 37-year-old future Hall-of-Famer expressed his love for the game of basketball, his time in the NBA, and for the Lakers for making his dreams come true.
