Kobe Bryant’s career finale was essentially the result of taking every stereotype of his career to it’s furthest extreme. The Los Angeles Lakers legend put up 60 points on 50 shots to beat the Utah Jazz in a legendary walk-off game, but according to Bryant, the plan wasn’t for his final outing to be such a spectacle.
Bryant sat down with Baxter Holmes of ESPN to take a fun look back at the last game of his career, and in the must-read piece, he revealed that what some would call hogging the ball was actually his way of being altruistic.
