No, Kobe has played his entire career with the Los Angeles Lakers.
Though back in 2007, Kobe Bryant demanded a trade from the Lakers to the Chicago Bulls, but ultimately a deal was not struck, and the team went on to win two additional titles with Bryant as NBA Finals MVP.
"Chicago was my No. 1 choice," said Bryant via "Grantland Basketball Hour."
The All-Star guard also confirmed he scuttled a trade the Lakers proposed that would have sent him to the Detroit Pistons.
"That is true," said Bryant, who said the potential deal included Richard "Rip" Hamilton, Tayshaun Prince and draft picks.
"I gave you a list of teams I'm comfortable being traded to," recalled Bryant. "Not Detroit."
The Lakers did have conversations with the Bulls, but a prospective deal was believed to have gotten hung up on the inclusion of forward Luol Deng. When no deal materialized for Bryant, the Lakers kept their star and eventually brought in Pau Gasol, winning championships in 2009 and 2010.
