With the Los Angeles Lakers set to immortalize Kobe Bryant by retiring his Nos. 8 and 24 jerseys at Staples Center during halftime of Monday’s game against the Golden State Warriors, Spectrum SportsNet is using the weekend to turn back the clock.
Beginning Saturday, Dec. 16, the exclusive home of the Lakers will air five iconic games from Bryant’s career, plus an encore of his appearance on SportsNet’s “Connected With…” series, which premiered last week.
In the episode, Bryant touched on an array of topics, including the mentality the Lakers’ young core should have, if he plans to attend more games in the future, and making the Oscar shortlist for his ‘Dear Basketball’ animated film.
