LeBron James Shares Kobe Bryant Olympic Memories With Lakers

LeBron James and his Lakers teammates shared memories of Kobe Bryant at their practice facility in El Segundo, Calif., on Tuesday, according to ESPN's Dave McMenamin.

The Lakers met as a team on Tuesday for the first time since Bryant's tragic death on Sunday morning. They held a "light workout" before a luncheon with players, ownership and staff.

James shared a notable story involving Bryant's legendary competitiveness during the 2008 Summer Olympics. Team USA faced Spain in the gold-medal game against Spain, and Bryant did not hold back against Lakers teammate Pau Gasol in the contest.
