Kobe Bryant transcends his sport like only a few before him have done. This basketball prodigy entered the league at age 18 and quickly began to rack up accolades: Slam Dunk Champion, NBA All-Star, NBA Champion, Olympic Champion and League MVP among others. His on-the-court exploits have been well documented, yet few have been able to witness what it’s like for Kobe on game day. Directed by film and cultural icon Spike Lee, the audience gets inside the locker room and inside the mind of this enigmatic superstar for a never-before-documented look at how Kobe prepares for and plays in one of the biggest games of the season. With unprecedented access, Spike covered the day with over 30 cameras and had Kobe mic’d up throughout the entire game providing the most-complete and intense look at the Laker superstar both on-the-court and off.
For most of us, a day at the office is never accompanied by media interviews and roaring crowds. For Los Angeles Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant, though, this is just a routine part of his job.
