Several NBA players have changed their jersey numbers this week in honor of Kobe Bryant, and Los Angeles Lakers point guard Quinn Cook has decided to make a switch as a tribute to both Kobe and his daughter Gianna.
Quinn told Shams Charania of The Athletic on Wednesday that he is changing from jersey No. 2 to No. 28. The new number combines the No. 8 Kobe wore during the first part of his career with the No. 2 Gianna wore for her youth basketball teams. Cook believes both numbers should be retired by the Lakers.
