Kobe Bryant is headed to Nickelodeon next month!
After twenty seasons on the Los Angeles Lakers, the five-time NBA Champion, four-time NBA Finals MVP, and two-time Olympic gold medalist will be honored with the legend award at Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Sports 2016 this July. Bryant will receive the award in recognition of his record-breaking achievements, unrivaled talent and outstanding sportsmanship on and off the basketball court.
“It’s an honor to receive Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Sports Legend Award. This is a great opportunity to inspire kids to never lose their imaginations and to dream bigger than what they think is possible. If you stay true to that, the hard work, dedication and success will always follow,†said Bryant.Â
