Kobe Bryant Calls Magic Johnson The Greatest Laker Ever

Kobe Bryant ended his illustrious NBA and Laker career on Wednesday night in a way that only he could. Bryant scored 60 points on 50 shots, and he came up big in the fourth quarter when the Lakers needed it the most. Despite not being the player he once was, Kobe put on a show for the Staples Center crowd and gave them one last memory.

Before the game, Laker legend Magic Johnson addressed the fans and called Bryant the greatest Laker of all time. Kobe holds franchise records in many very meaningful categories including most points, games played, field goals made and minutes.
