ESPN is showing Kobe Bryant no love again for the second straight year in their NBA player rank in which ESPN ranks the best players in the NBA for the upcoming season. Last year ESPN ranked him the 25th best player in the NBA which Kobe didn’t like. ESPN did way worse by Kobe’s standards this NBA season:
