Be sure to catch the upcoming interview of Basketball player Kobe Bryant to the LA Times Magazine, if only for the stylish photos.

L.A Lakers guard, dressed all in white created mixed reactions towards the photo, coming from fans and viewers. Some gave very positive remarks, while others claim that Bryant looked too feminine for a Basketball player.

As the photo shoot’s stylist, James Valeri, told the Los Angeles Times , it was fun working with Bryant, who went along with the idea. The look he was going for was a combination between Tupac Shakur and Epic Fail, like a gentleman in a white hat with the Tupac attitude. The stylist also made sure that the look brings out Bryant’s cool, young and successful basketball player image. The photographer Ruven Afandor, wanted everything to be white, therefore Bryant is wearing a different white look in every single picture. Bryant told Tom Murray that he had never been so white in his whole life.

Kobe Bryant was the first guard and the youngest to be picked out of high school, and was picked by the Charlotte Hornets in 1996, when he first joined the NBA.
