New Art Honors Kobe Bryant’s Legacy…
In the streets of Los Angeles, it’s harder to avoid a Kobe Bryant mural than it is to find a parking spot during rush hour! Five years after his passing, his presence is omnipresent in L.A.’s art scene—especially with a new mural showing him sporting an L.A. Dodgers jersey instead of his usual Lakers attire. Recently, the Dodgers even rolled out the Kobe carpet by hosting a bobblehead giveaway and including his family in the festivities. With a Jersey tug and Dodgers pride, this latest mural is painted with love for a sports legend whose legacy is as enduring as a traffic jam on the 405.
Meanwhile, in the world of sports memorabilia, a Kobe Bryant card recently hit the market with a price tag so high you’d think it was wrapped in gold and guarded by unicorns! Selling for a mind-boggling $2.3 million, this collectible became the most expensive card featuring the iconic Lakers legend. Only a few months back, his game-worn jersey fetched $7 million in auction, proving once again that Kobe’s legacy is etched not just in murals and memories, but in the bank accounts of dedicated fans.
