Wednesday night will mark the end of Kobe Bryant's NBA career, and honestly, it's a sad way to end a fantastic career. While Kobe won five NBA titles during his career, it will all come to an end in a meaningless (for the Lakers, anyway) game against the Utah Jazz.
So since the game itself won't mean much, everybody is celebrating with #MambaDay on social media platforms to honor the retiring legend, and even LSU's Les Miles is getting in on the act.
The Lakers were in New Orleans last week to play the Pelicans, and Miles presented Kobe with his own personalized LSU football jersey. Miles tweeted a photo of Bryant with the jersey for the Mamba Day festivities.
Had special LSU jersey made for Kobe in what was his final New Orleans appearance. Waited to share until #MambaDay pic.twitter.com/V38QPSHszU

I'm not sure if it'll fit, but the good news for Kobe is we already know he looks good in purple and gold.
