Hank’s A1 All-Stars defeated the Kings of LA, 104-99. Clippers center Ryan Hollins contributed 17 points and 10 rebounds for the winning team.
Established in 1973 by Alvin Wills, a number of Lakers (past and present) have participated through the years including Bryant, Byron Scott, Michael Cooper, Trevor Ariza, Nick Young and Metta World Peace.
Bryant scored 45 points in a Drew League game in August 2011.
Bryant wasn’t able to participate this summer, still working his way back from surgery to repair a torn Achilles tendon.
He still caused a stir when he arrived at King-Drew Magnet High School in Los Angeles.
