Fit Fix: Kobe Bryant Is Saying Farewell to Basketball

Morning, dudes. Here's the latest in cool stuff

"His Laker Dream": Kobe Bryant is saying farewell to basketball after this season, he announced in a poem, called "Dear Basketball," on The Players Tribune. "I've known for a while," Bryant told the assembled media after the Lakers' 107-103 loss to the Indiana Pacers. "A decision like this, you can't make that decision based on outside circumstances. It has to be an internal decision, and finally I've decided to accept that I can't actually do this anymore, and I'm OK with that." [ESPN]
