#BBB NEWS| NBA: Kevin Durant & Russell Westbrook Give Kobe Bryant a Book With Handwritten Notes [PHOTOS]

Kobe Bryant’s farewell tour is coming to an end, and on Monday night he played his last road game. The game was against the Oklahoma City Thunder, and their stars, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook presented Bryant with a special gift.

Durant and Westbrook presented him with a book that included handwritten, personal notes from Thunder players detailing what Bryant meant to them.

The book presentation took place in a private hallway pregame, with only Durant, Westbrook, Bryant and a photographer present.

“It meant the world,” Durant said of facing Bryant for the last time in an on-court Fox Sports Oklahoma interview after the game. “It was the first time that I’ve gone through this with a guy like that, leaving the game. So many people love him for what he’s done for our game, and I’m one of those guys.”


With Lakers jerseys spread throughout the typically biased Thunder crowd, the team also played a two-minute video before Bryant was introduced in the starting lineup. The video focused on Bryant’s legacy and was narrated by his high school coach, Gregg Downer.
