NBA great Kobe Bryant scoops Oscars award for the Best Animated short film

American Basketball legend Kobe Bean Bryant is known for a successful two-decade career in the court but that may have changed after he wrote history in the film industry at the heart of Los Angeles. His lengthy stay in the game paid off when he lifted the Oscars award for the Best Animated Short at the 90^th Academy Awards at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, USA.

 His name litters many basketball ball jerseys worn by the enthusiasts of the game in the streets. Bryant retired from the game in 2015 drawing the curtain on his life as a player penning down an animated film known as “Dear Basketball,” that has won the prestigious Oscars award.
