Kobe Bryant The Mamba Mentality

Psychology & Self-Help Biography & Memoir Sport & Recreation

Kobe Bryant’s 2018 hardcover The Mamba Mentality pairs the NBA legend’s own words with vivid court-side photography, creating an illustrated autobiography that doubles as a master-class in basketball focus and personal drive. The oversized, 207-page volume lets readers study every pivot, dunk, and late-night practice session that shaped the five-time champion’s approach to sport and life.

Ideal for young adults, adult collectors, and hoop fans, this non-fiction picture book blends biography, fitness insight, and motivational coaching. Bryant’s concise reflections sit beside archival images, offering a front-row seat to his famously relentless work ethic and the cultural impact of the Lakers dynasty.

This used copy shows predictable hardcover wear—scuffs on the jacket and first black photo page, light thumbing on a few dark spreads—yet every page remains clean, unmarked, and tightly bound. No writing, dog-ears, or tears; stored in a smoke-free home and ready for display or courtside reading.

Add the illustrated Mamba Mentality to your sports library and absorb Kobe’s winning mindset without the new-book price tag.
