Kobe Bryant was feared and renowned for his mental strength and toughness. His dedication to the craft of basketball and his relentless need to succeed is what made him a great player.
Drafted in 1996 by the Charlotte Hornets, Kobe was traded to the Lakers soon after. It was in Los Angeles that The Black Mamba blossomed into a scoring machine.
