“Mamba Mentality” is a worldwide phenomenon born out of the fierce competitive drive of Los Angeles Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant. “The Black Mamba” was among the very best players in the NBA for 20 seasons, with 18 All-Star selections proving Bryant’s global popularity, and his 25.0 points per game scoring average affirming the former Lower Merion High School superstar’s talent on the hardwood. A posthumous inductee in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, the impact of Bryant’s loss on the basketball world is incalculable.
Graded GEM MT 10 by PSA, one of just three examples at its tier. Hall of Famer. The Lakers legend has signed the card in blue ink, inscribing his nickname “Black Mamba” in addition to his signature. A statement on the card's back attests to the authenticity of the signature, and serves as Panini’s COA. The limited-edition piece is serial-numbered "93/99." A desirable commemorative of a too-soon departed, deeply missed legend, in blazing Gem Mint condition.
