Kobe scored 60 points in his final game. Yes, I still can’t believe it. It was a night of basketball no NBA fan will ever forget. A lot of NBA players, also fans of the game, per their reactions seem like they won’t forget the night either.
Here are as many NBA player’s tweets as I could find:

Even Jalen Rose who blocks people left and right for mentioning “81”, paid respects.
60 in his final game?! 81(on me)in his prime. Incredible. Insane discipline! Congratulations @kobebryant.
