Magic Johnson and a host of NBA legends honored Kobe Bryant before his final game.
“We are here to celebrate greatness for 20 years,” Johnson told the crowd, to raucous cheers, “Excellence for 20 years. Kobe Bryant has never cheated the game, never cheated us as the fans. He has played through injury, he has played hurt. And we have five championship banners to show for it.
“When you think about this town for the last 20 years this man has been the biggest and greatest celebrity we’ve had.”
