Kobe Bryant's retirement tour continues Sunday when his Los Angeles Lakers host the Golden State Warriors, but this time, his teammates will take the court wearing tributes to the Black Mamba.

The Lakers will become the first NBA team to wear equipment celebrating an active player when they take the court in official Bryant-themed socks Sunday afternoon, according to ESPN's Baxter Holmes.

Of the three styles displayed above, the Lakers will only wear the design in the center on Sunday, while the other two styles showcasing Kobe are strictly for fans and consumers.

Bryant, who has sat out three of the last four games due to shoulder soreness, approved the socks, which were produced by the NBA's official sock provider, Stance.
