Basketball legend Kobe Bryant will visit Manila next week for a meet and greet with his Filipino fans.

Nike announced Friday that Bryant's visit on June 25-26 is part of the NBA superstar’s “Mamba Mentality Tour.”

It will be his first visit to the Philippines since retiring from the NBA last April with a sensational 60-point output against the Utah Jazz.

"Mamba Mentality is a philosophy derived from Kobe’s approach to the game, and his aspirations of chasing perfection through hard work, resilience and passion in every aspect of life on and off the court," Nike said in a press statement.

Bryant will also hold a "Kobe Academy" clinic on June 26 with selected players who “have the skills and Mamba Mentality mindset.”

Nike said players are invited to join the Kobe Academy Pre-Camp on June 22-24 to qualify for the Kobe Academy.

Bryant won five NBA championships in 20 years with the LA Lakers.

Aside from winning the league Most Valuable Player award in 2008, he was also named the NBA Finals MVP in 2009 and 2010.
