While embarking on his farewell tour, Kobe Bryant made it easy for fellow players to get signed sneakers by packing as many as seven extra pairs during road games. Bryant went on record saying he’d give autographed kicks to anyone who asked, but it sounds like there’s at least one exception.
Lakers shooting guard and recent adidas signee Nick Young said he asked Kobe to sign his adidas sneakers last night. Instead of politely declining, Swaggy P said Kobe actually threw his kicks in the trash, making it known that he would only sign Nike products.
“The fact that he threw my adidas and didn’t sign my adidas, I was a little disappointed in that,” Young said. “I think he threw my shoes in the trash, but yeah, that’s Kobe for you… He told me to go get some Nikes, he’s not signing no adidas.”
