Valuation Analysis
“Flyknit, molded mesh and a rubberized sole became the mind, body and soul of the shoe—a natural progression from the Kobe 9. It may not receive a ton of love these days, but that does not mean the Kobe 10 isn’t beautiful.”
– Giancarlo Ferrari-King, Bleacher Report
Kobe Bryant
Kobe Bryant is one of the most beloved and accomplished basketball players to ever play the game. Bryant spent his entire 20-year career with the Los Angeles Lakers, helping them win five NBA championships, and was an 18-time All-Star, a 15-time member of the All-NBA Team, a 12-time member of the All-Defensive Team, the 2008 NBA Most Valuable Player (MVP), and a two-time NBA Finals MVP.
Bryant also led the NBA in scoring twice, and ranks fourth on the league’s all-time regular season scoring and all-time postseason scoring lists. He is the all-time leading scorer in Lakers franchise history. He was also the first guard in NBA history to play at least 20 seasons. His 18 All-Star designations are the second most all time, while it is the record for most consecutive appearances as a starter. Bryant’s four All-Star Game MVP Awards are tied with Bob Pettit for the most in NBA history. Bryant tragically died at age 41, along with his 13-year-old daughter Gianna and seven others, in a helicopter crash in Calabasas, California in 2020. Their memories will forever live on in the hearts and minds of sports fans.
