LOS ANGELES - Kobe Bryant was not offended by a Twitter post by one of the Lakers' newly drafted players he said Saturday in a talk at the BET Experience at L.A. Live. The Lakers star said there wasn't any need to discuss it further.
Shortly after Larry Nance Jr. was drafted with the No. 27 overall pick of Thursday's draft, a post from 2012 surfaced on Twitter in which Nance wrote "Gee I sure hope Kobe can keep his hands to himself in Denver this time" with the hastag "rapist." The Wyoming star deleted the post after it went viral.
