American basketballer, Kobe Bryant will call it quit with basket ball.
The 37-year-old NBA pro wrote a poem about his passion for the sport, which was posted on The Players Tribune Sunday afternoon. The website almost immediately crashed.
In the emotional letter, Bryant announces that after his 20-year career with the Los Angeles Lakers, this will be his last.
He notes that basketball “gave a six-year-old boy his Laker dream and I’ll always love you for it.”
“But I can’t love you obsessively for much longer,” he continues. “This season is all I have left to give.”
