A consistent, rugged, battering-type performer, the Ivy League grad is regarded as one of the most underrated cornermen in the league. He was second to Elgin Baylor on the team in rebounding last season, second in free throw percentage at .790 and third in scoring. A solid athlete, he played with a broken bone in his wrist for six weeks in his freshman season in 1959-60. His hobbies include water color and oil painting, and writing.

Who is it?
The alarm sounded right off the gate: this was a new Kobe Bryant who took the floor in 1998-99... improved even over the teenage NBA All-Star of the year before who was beginning to draw comparisons to, well, you know who. Starting the season without a double-double in his career Kobe ran off fiv...
Who is it?
The most solidly built player in the N.B.A., Larry is "murder" under the boards. He has scored over 1000 points in 4 of his 7 previous seasons, but last season had an injured back. In the 1954-55 season, Larry led the Pistons to the Title and owns accuracy record with a .487 field goal mark.

Back to the Front! Lakers card back du jour...
Kobe Bryant
A three-time NBA All-Star Game starter before he turned 23, Kobe seems destined for all-time greatness. Incredibly, he's still getting better. Much better. In '00-01, he boosted his scoring average six points per game to 28.5 (fourth in the NBA) while maintaining both his shooting percentage and rate of assists - no easy feat. Along the way, he chalked up a 51-point game, as well as the first two triple-doubles of what should be a boatload of them in his career.
