"The Mamba Mentality" takes readers on a journey to the core of the legendary mindset that made basketball superstar Kobe Bryant one of the greatest to ever play the game. It's all accompanied by the stunning photography of Andrew D. Bernstein, the NBA's Hall of Fame photographer who captured Bryant's very first photo as a Laker in 1996, his very last in 2016, and many thousands in between. These photographs beautifully reveal the inner workings of one of the most intelligent, analytical, and creative athletes of our time.
