Some people got it all twisted...He left High School(Lower Merion H.S. in Lower Merion PA) and was drafted by Charlotte, with the13th pick(96 draft).Later in the draft he was traded to the Lakers for Vlade Divac.

Being Kobe's number one fan I am 100% sure that he entered the NBA draft coming straight out of high school in Pennsyvania after winning a state championship.
