Kobe Bryant Returns Home, Lakers Take On 76ers

@SLAMonline

Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers will return home to take on the Philadelphia 76ers tonight. Kobe Bryant is coming back to Philadelphia one last time and our own Lavoy Briscoe will be in attendance.

In a matchup of two of the worst teams in the league there’s plenty of buzz. The Lakers passed on Jahlil Okafor in order to draft guard D’Angelo Russell. Okafor has been great on the court but has had plenty of off court issues. First reports surfaced last week that he was involved in a fight. Then he was clocked going 108 MPH.

Besides that Philly as just been.. well Philly. They are 0-18 as they continue to try to collect draft picks and assets. For the Lakers it will all be about Bryant.

Kobe Bryant was born in Philadelphia and played his high school basketball at Lower Merion High School. He won his second championship in Philly against the Allen Iverson and Larry Brown.

We all know the struggles that Bryant is facing this season but it will be nice to see and hear the ovation for Bryant as he begins this farewell tour.

Julius Randle is having a strong season and it will be interesting to see how he faces off against Nerlens Noel and Okafor tonight.
