If you’re planning on giving Kobe Bryant some sort of retirement gift, good luck topping Michael Jordan’s.
Jordan Brand presented Bryant with a set of all Air Jordans that have been released, from one through thirty, according to a Nike statement. The set included Air Jordan III and VIII in purple and gold, as worn by Bryant in 2002-2003.
Lasting legacy.

“The Jordan Brand is about more than basketball, it’s about leaving a legacy and honoring those who have left a legacy,” Jordan Brand President Larry Miller said. “Tonight the brand was able to honor one of the games great players and the legacy he created.”
Bryant has previously requested that opposing teams not give him gifts before away games. From now on, that request may be because nobody’s topping this.
