Los Angeles Lakers icon Kobe Bryant wore these Nike Zoom VII sneakers on March 9th, 2012, during a road tilt against the Minnesota Timberwolves at Target Center. Bryant led all scorers with 34 points, adding 4 rebounds, an assist, and a steal in Los Angeles’ 105-102 road win. In the 66-game regular season, Bryant averaged 27.9 points per game, his highest total since winning the NBA MVP Award with a 28.3 points per game scoring average in 2007-08. The former Lower Merion High School star added 5.4 rebounds and 4.6 assists per game as the Lakers claimed the Pacific Division title and advanced to the Western Conference Semifinals.

These offered Nike Zoom VII sneakers are black, white, and gold, with white Nike swoosh logos applied to both sides of the shoes. There is a yellow ankle support and Bryant’s personal logo is applied to both tongues, while his facsimile signature is applied in gold to the heels. The sneakers are size 14, and Bryant has signed both shoes in black marker on the outside Nike swooshes. These sneakers have been certified by Panini, who have covered both the game use and signatures.
