Kobe Bryant video helped bring Ohtani to Dodgers
A 2017 video recorded by late Lakers star Kobe Bryant was instrumental in persuading baseball player Shohei Ohtani to sign with the Los Angeles Dodgers, according to an ESPN report. Originally recorded when the Dodgers first attempted to recruit Ohtani, the video was not shown to him until he signed with the Los Angeles Angels. In the video, Bryant urged Ohtani to join the Dodgers, branding Los Angeles as the city of champions and the ideal place to win a championship. The video reportedly had a significant impact on Ohtani, who described it as a “strong and touching message.”
