Kobe Bryant called it quits Wednesday night in a way only he could.
While the Los Angeles Lakers appeared destined for a loss in the final game of the Black Mamba's historic 20-year NBA career, Bryant cooked up a signature performance for the ages as he dropped 60points on 50shots to hand the Purple and Gold a 101-96win at a raucous Staples Center.

The 60-point game was the sixth of Bryant's career, and it left LeBron James in awe:

Bryant's 60-point explosion was also the highest scoring game in the NBA all season, and he broke Michael Jordan's single-game field-goal attempt record in the process, according to Basketball-Reference.
