Kobe Bryant's retirement tour has been nothing short remarkable, with the Los Angeles Lakers legend receiving a number of gifts throughout his farewell season.

An avid soccer fan, Kobe exchanged jerseys with retired footballer Thierry Henry following the Lakers game Friday as a token of mutual respect.

Henry was at the game to visit fellow Frenchmen Tony Parker and Boris Diaw, who helped lead the San Antonio Spurs to a 119-113 victory over Los Angeles.
