Kobe Bryant Took Many, Many Shots & Gave the 76ers Their First Win in His Philly Finale

Kobe Bryant played his final game in his hometown of Philadelphia on Tuesday night. Kobe was honored before, during, and after the game by the organization and fans and returned the favor by giving the 76ers their first win of the season. Kobe shot 7 of 26 from the field (4-17 3pt) on his way to scoring 20 points as the winless 76ers became the 1-18 76ers.

Kobe actually started the game by making 3 of 4 three pointers in the first 1:16. Of course the guy shooting 20% from deep proceeded to miss 12 of his final 13 three-point attempts. And you wonder why people like to shout SMALL SAMPLE SIZE!

Kobe did however provide one vintage highlight – a reverse layup that left most of the Sixers looking like the Sixers.

Enhance!

Philly will miss you, Bean.
