Hall of Famer Kobe Bryant closed out his legendary career in 2016. Coming straight out of Lower Merion High School outside of Philadelphia, Bryant finished his stellar career with five NBA championships, two NBA Finals MVPs, one NBA MVP, was an 18-time All-Star, an 11-time All-NBA First Team selection, and is the all-time leading scorer in Lakers history. Bryant’s penultimate season was in 2014-15 when at the age of 36, still averaged 22.3 points per game.

Bryant wore this black alternate short sleeve Adidas Climalite jersey during the 2014-15 season. This black jersey is accented with purple around the collar and has a yellow and purple stripe running down each side. “LAKERS” is applied to the chest in purple tackle twill with yellow stitched borders, while Kobe’s number “24” is sewn on the chest and back in purple mesh over yellow stitching and black tackle twill. “BRYANT” is sewn across the back shoulders in purple and yellow tackle twill. An NBA logo patch is sewn on above Bryant’s name on the back, while an NBA Authentics tag with the code “LLA02480” is sewn on the front left tail next to an Adidas size “4XL” tag with an attached “LENGTH+4”” flag. A gold patch with “16X” is sewn on the outside back neck. Bryant has signed his name diagonally on the “2” on the back. This jersey displays light game use and comes with a LOA from Sports Investors Authentication (200407D3) for the use. There is also a LOA from the Los Angeles Lakers with matching holograms (LL019673) on the jersey and the LOA for the signature.
