The Story Behind #8

Kobe Bryant wore #8 during the first decade of his legendary Lakers career — winning three consecutive NBA championships (2000, 2001, 2002) alongside Shaquille O'Neal. He scored 81 points in a single game wearing this number, and was selected to multiple All-Star teams before switching to #24 in 2006. The #8 jersey is a tribute to the young Mamba at his most explosive.
