The Lakers made a pledge, made a commitment to play for Kobe. To win the NBA Finals for Kobe, to dedicate everything this season and postseason for Kobe Bean Bryant.

“Mamba and Mambacita jerseys approved for game 5,” Vanessa Bryant wrote in an Instagram story Wednesday night. “Let’s go @lakers.”
Here is what Anthony Davis said about this:
“Obviously, we’re representing him,” Davis said afterward. “Especially in those jerseys. It’s his jersey, one he created, and any time we put it on, we want to win.”
