Kobe Bryant’s response to this question was funny then (2011) but sad now (2022). It’s curious that he picked South Carolina as where he’d want to settle down, but he may have been only kidding.

📰Excerpt from ‘Kobe Bryant remembers going up against a recruit - I made it a point to make his training camp absolute hell’ article by Virgil Villanueva:
Well, we had a player in training camp actually named [Mickael] Gelabale, Bryant recalled. He was a young player, but he had been in the league before. He joined us for training camp, and I could tell he was really nervous. We’d had a little altercation when he was playing for Seattle and now he was in training camp with me on the Lakers and he’s face-to-face with me every day, knowing that I hadn’t forgotten what happened and that I was never going to forget. I don’t forget that stuff. I could tell that he was really, really nervous and I made it a point to make his training camp absolute hell, Bryant told Hoops Hype.
Unfortunately, Gelabale didn’t make the Lakers roster. Perhaps the jitters got the best of him. The fact that Kobe made training camp extra challenging also didn’t help. But what can you do? To make it to the NBA, you have to be as tough as nails. If you can endure Kobe’s assault, you can literally do anything in this world.
