Kobe Bryant challenges John Wall, Giannis Antetokounmpo
Kobe Bryant has issued tests for John Wall and Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Asked Sunday on Twitter what his challenge for the Washington Wizards point guard was, the Los Angeles Lakers legend called on Wall to make the All-Defensive first team.
Wall responded, because, well, you don't turn down a challenge from Kobe.

Despite earning 38 total points, including 14 first-team votes, Wall did not make the cut for either defensive team in 2016-17, which the former No. 1 pick appears to have laughed off. He was named to the All-Defensive second team in 2015.
