NBA All-Star Game MVP trophy will honor Kobe Bryant and his career
Few people will do what Kobe Bryant did, in his NBA career, starting with spending twenty years on the same team. In 1996, Kobe Bryant was drafted by the Hornets, but never played for them. From 1996 until 2016, Kobe Bryant played for the Lakers.
Kobe Bryant scored 60 points in his final game, which was also an NBA first. While Kobe Bryant will go down as the NBA’s greatest scorer and competitor, Michael Jordan will likely go down as the greatest player. Two years ago, when Bryant died, people petitioned for him to become the NBA’s new logo. Others argued the honor should go to Jordan.
Kobe Bryant’s individual accolades will be honored the All-Star Game. In his career, Kobe won the All-Star Game MVP four times. This year, the NBA announced the All-Star MVP trophy will be renamed the “Kobe Bryant Trophy.” Today, details about the trophy have emerged. On Twitter, the NBA broke the trophy down. Each part of it will honor a different part of Kobe Bryant’s legacy. The first Kobe Bryant trophy will be handed out at the 2022 NBA All-Star Game in Cleveland.
