Kanye West SNUBBED! Security Blocks Rapper from Kobe’s Locker Room After Final Game… Until THIS Lakers Star Stepped In! 😲

Kobe Bryant’s final NBA game in 2016 was a spectacle to behold. The Crypto.com Arena was packed with A-listers from every walk of life, all eager to witness the Black Mamba’s last dance. Among the stars in attendance was rapper Kanye West, a longtime friend of Bryant’s. However, Ye’s attempt to greet Kobe post-game took an unexpected turn.

Kanye West, Left Stranded?

Eager to congratulate the Lakers legend, Kanye found himself blocked by security guards

outside the locker room. The guards, amidst the post-game chaos, failed to recognize the music icon and refused him entry. Imagine Kanye, used to VIP treatment, stuck outside a locker room!
Roy Hibbert to the Rescue!

Luckily for Kanye, Lakers center Roy Hibbert came to his rescue. In an interview on the ‘Gary Parish Show’, Hibbert revealed, “We were all drinking in the locker room and I go outside to see my wife to get something signed from Kobe.

And the security guard wouldn’t let Kanye West [enter the locker room]… I was like, ‘I told you guys it’s okay. I think Kobe is waiting for him and everything.’ So eventually I got Kanye in to see Kobe.”
Hibbert’s intervention saved the day, allowing Kanye to finally meet Kobe. This incident highlights the intense atmosphere surrounding Kobe’s farewell game, where even a global superstar like Kanye West could get lost in the shuffle.
