What more can you say about the "Black Mamba"? He brought basketball and Lakers fans such joy as one of the all-time elite players, and then rocked our worlds when he was suddenly taken away in early 2020.
Here we have a beautiful Kobe Bryant basketball with his rookie-era signature in gold marker, boldly written as Kobe 8 on the "sweet spot" of the ball just above the Spalding logo. It displays nicely with an eye pleasing mix of the orange ball, the gold Kobe signature and black Spalding brand name. We love the image of a young Kobe at the time of the signing!
The ball is perfectly presented and preserved in its like-new Spalding box and includes Beckett LOA.
