The story never gets old: Kobe Bryant, drafted thirteenth overall out of Lower Merion H.S. by the Charlotte Hornets, gets traded on the night of the NBA draft to the Los Angeles Lakers in a move that, in hindsight, looks like highway robbery. Jerry West, who orchestrated the trade, believed Kobe would be a massive star and took the opportunity to get the future Black Mamba in yellow and League. Still, it’s fun to think of a possible scenario featuring Kobe as a Hornet, but it’s clear that the man would’ve achieved the pinnacle of success wherever he played.
