After five championships and 20 years of NBA ball Kobe Bryant, the NBA's third-highest all-time scorer, has announced his retirement.
Kobe Bryant is calling it quits.
The 17-time NBA All-Star made his announcement in The Players' Tribune.
Plagued by injuries, Bryant's 20th year in the league is shaping up to be his worst. He's at a career-low 31.5 shooting percentage and the Lakers have the worst record in the West.
But Bryant's sure-to-be Hall of Fame career includes 5 NBA rings, 2 NBA Finals MVP awards, and 17 All-Star Games – all in Los Angeles.
