Kobe Bryant will be inducted into the Pro Basketball Hall of Fame as part of the class of 2020 -- alongside Kevin Garnett and Tim Duncan.
Players become eligible 4 seasons after their last game -- and with Kobe retiring in 2016, this was his first opportunity to get in.
The ceremony (which will be formally announced on Saturday) will take place at the The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, MA in August, according to Shams Charania.
It's a no-brainer -- Kobe is widely considered one of the greatest players of all time .
