In an appearance on The Athletic’s Knuckleheads podcast, a five-time NBA champion Kobe Bryant shared his thoughts on wearing number 24:

Kobe’s philosophical reason for wearing number 24:

“It was about approaching every day as if it was my last.

I had to have that mentality; I have to drive this team every day. There’s no days off.

Every time I look at that number, it’s like today is the most important day.” pic.twitter.com/9hGYderOhS
