Kobe Bryant gets warm welcome from LeBron James' home crowd during player intros
As the Kobe Bryant retirement tour made its final stop in Cleveland, many didn't know what to expect from LeBron James' home crowd.
Before tipoff of Wednesday's Cavaliers-Lakers matchup, even if only for a short moment, Quicken Loans Arena wasn't The King's Court.
In his final appearance against the Cavaliers in Cleveland, Bryant was honored by the team and the fans during pregame introductions.
The crowd erupted as the Black Mamba was introduced by the Cavs' emcee, with a standing ovation to follow:
