This experience in particular is one that Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant will have when he sees this photo of him as a kid with a high-top fade. This photo was taken in 1990 in Italy, and likely at a basketball camp that Bryant had been attending.

In all honesty, it is very likely that this photo would give Kobe a good laugh. Nevertheless, this a pretty cool snapshot, as it provides a lighter side of Kobe that fans don’t typically get to see.
