While Kobe Bryant has moved on to another chapter in his life and career, his involvement with the Lakers organization is far from over.
Around the 3:33 mark in the video above, Kobe says, “I’ve spoken to Luke [Walton] several times and B-Shaw (Brian Shaw) as well, and I let the players know that I’m always around. If you want to come out, get up early in the morning and work out and walk them through some things. The Lakers are in my blood, man.”
The Mamba seemed optimistic about the Lakers’ young core, and the new coaching staff’s ability to guide the team in the right direction.
“They have a lot of potential. Hopefully they can put it together sooner rather than later,” Kobe said.
