Shaquille O’Neal Once Wore Kobe Bryant’s Number 8 Jersey

After the Pacers game, the Lakers played against the Houston Rockets, and Shaq decided to wear Kobe’s No. 8 jersey during warmups. Since the jerseys did not come in Shaq’s size, it looked kind of funny on the big man.

Bryant did not only love the gesture from his teammate, but also the fact that his jersey got stretched out — just a little bit!

“I was kind of happy, man, because you know how the NBA rules make you wear those tight, little John Stockton uniforms? I was kind of happy. He stretched it out for me. I was hoping maybe he could wear my shorts.”
