After being delayed due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the Naismith Memorial Basketball of Fame is set to induct the Classes of 2020 and 2021 this weekend.
The 2020 Class is a star-studded one that is headlined by Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant as well as Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett. Bryant was a shoo-in as a first-ballot Hall of Famer due to his historic career with the storied franchise, and it will be a bittersweet moment for Lakers fans given his tragic passing in January of 2020.
Bryant will be presented by Michael Jordan and his wife Vanessa will also speak during the ceremony.
