MANILA, Philippines – Kobe Bryant made his most recent visit to Manila over the weekend for the Mamba Mentality Tour, which included an appearance at the Smart Araneta Coliseum - a place he’s become familiar with owing to many visits in the past.
Bryant did not play but coached a team of UAAP players against a team of PBA players in a 12-minute scrimmage.
After the game, the recently-retired Bryant was honored by the fans in attendance who opened the flashlights of their cellphones and directed the lights toward him. After that, a banner of Bryant was displayed on the rafters of the coliseum, right across the “Thrilla in Manila” banner.
