Kobe Bryant, the U.S. basketball superstar of the Los Angeles Lakers, is expected to descend on the Philippine capital of Manila on September 5, local media reported Wednesday.
During his one-day visit, Kobe Bryant will take part in a latest Nike shoe launch and share skills with young Filipino basketball players, the Manila-based GMA TV said.
"Kobe Bryant serves as a basketball icon, inspiration and role model to a lot of our young Filipino athletes and we are proud to bring him closer to his fans," said Melissa Crucillo, Nike Philippines country marketing manager.
After Manila visit, Kobe will fly to Taipei, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Beijing, as part of the Kobe Bryant's Supernatural Asia Tour 2007, the report said.
