Kobe Bryant, Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett lead the list of finalists for Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. WNBA stars Tamika Catchingson list as well.
When Bryant’s name was announced, the Hall of Famers sitting on the stage behind the host bowed their heads or looked down.
Bryant’s former teammate Gary Payton was among the Hall of Famers in attendance. Although most players do not attend the announcement of their class, Garnett sat in the first row in the room, next to Raptors superfan Nav Bhatia, who was acknowledged at the start of the news conference. When his name was announced, Garnett stood to acknowledge the audience then nearly stumbled as he sat down.
