08:15 AM ET 08.13 | Team USA helped Kobe Bryant put an Olympic exclamation point on his career Sunday. [Bryant] has five championship rings and two gold medals, this one "right there up at the top," he said of his career highlights. "It was a journey for us. It was just tough. It's a huge accomplishment." It is also the last Olympic stop for Bryant, who turns 34 this month. "I'm definitely not playing" in 2016, he said after scoring 17 points against Spain. "We have a lot of talented players coming up and hopefully we'll continue to grow our program, continue to mentor the young fellows coming up ... and continue to carry on the tradition."
