Kobe Bryant's tragic death on Sunday has spawned a sea of tributes, and two of Bryant's former Team USA teammates honored the former Lakers legend on Tuesday night.
Thunder point guard Chris Paul shared an emotional tribute to Bryant on Instagram Tuesday evening. Paul posted photos of Bryant with the point guard's son, as well as the two during their 38 career matchups. Bryant won the career head-to-head 20–18 across 11 seasons.
"Broken fingers, torn Achilles, it didn’t matter. You overcame it all!! You were different," Paul wrote. "Sometimes we competed so hard against each other that you could never tell how I was always watching you.
