Kobe Bryant

The Staples Center (now Crypto.com Arena) was Kobe Bryant's home for 20 seasons — the arena where he won 5 NBA championships and scored 81 points in a single game. His jersey numbers 8 and 24 hang from the rafters.

Kobe Bryant attended Lower Merion High School in Pennsylvania before entering the NBA draft at 17 — his high school retired his jersey and fans still visit the gym where a legend was born.

Kobe Bryant's statue was unveiled outside the arena he made famous, formerly Staples Center.
