List of NBA Players Changing Jersey Numbers to Honor Kobe Bryant

The tragic and sudden passing of Kobe and Gianna Bryant has hit every member of the basketball community very hard. In honor of the Bryants, several players throughout the NBA have decided to change their jersey numbers; the league usually does not allow for midseason number changes, but are reviewing each player's request on a case-by-case basis. It's hard to imagine them denying any of these players, though.
