VIDEO: Kobe celebrates 3-pointer with Paris train attack heroes

Richard Mackson / USA TODAY Sports

Kobe Bryant shared his celebration of a late 3-pointer against the Detroit Pistons on Sunday with three very important people: the three heroes of the Paris train attacks in August.

The Los Angeles Lakers hosted the three friends - Spencer Stone, Alek Skarlatos, and Anthony Sadler - who helped to stop a terrorist attack on a Paris train.

After Kobe's 3-pointer, the Lakers veteran greeted the heroes - sitting on the sidelines - with high-fives.

"That was a great moment," said Bryant. "They were encouraging me all game. I figured I'd get one to sit down and make sure I'd dap them up."
