Kobe Bryant’s history as a signature athlete for Nike reads more like a mythical story of man possessing ethereal powers enhanced by armor handed down to him by the gods. In the post-threepeat era of his career, he quickly shed the reputation as “the Next Jordan” and immediately forged a legacy of his own, with all the rich stories of triumph and failure told through the intense Prelude Pack of last year. Even at this advanced stage of his career, Kobe finds himself performing at top form in the Kobe 9, and in this special video of Nike Basketball, the winningest Nike Basketball athlete of our generation gives insight as to what having a Nike signature shoe means, and offers some words of advice to whoever may be next in line to grace the Nike crest on their feet. Check out the video below and stay tuned for more Nike Basketball Inside Access as we gear up for a special event on December 3rd.
