In the wake of the shocking news of Kobe Bryant’s death on Sunday, 710 ESPN Seattle’s Dave “The Groz” Grosby remembers the all-time NBA great in the latest edition of Just a Minute.

Gallant: What about Kobe Bryant’s legacy makes his death hit so hard

While Bryant’s prime came after the great run of the Seattle Sonics in the mid-1990s, there are plenty of big moments for any basketball fan to look back on when it comes to his time with the Los Angeles Lakers.

The moment that Groz focuses on the most is Bryant’s final game, when he scored 60 points to cap off the Lakers’ 2016 season.
