It’s still only February, but we already have the likely choice for the most awkward video of the sports year.
Kobe Bryant’s farewell tour continued Wednesday night in Memphis where the Los Angeles Lakers legend played his final game in front of Grizzlies fans.
One courtside fan wanted to get in on the whole retirement gift-giving thing by offering up a hug to Bryant as he came to the bench late in the game. Bryant was shaking hands with teammates and when he got to the lady, bless her heart, he just skipped literally right around her.
It was so incredibly awkward.

Well, that was ugly. But not as ugly as Bryant’s 13-point performance on 5-of-14 shooting in the Lakers’ seventh consecutive loss.
