It's 81 points - in a 2006 game against the Raptors. It's the second-highest single-game scoring output in NBA history behind Wilt Chamberlain's famous 100-point game.
In 42 minutes, Bryant scored those 81 points on 28 of 46 shooting, going 7 for 13 from three and 18 of 20 from the free-throw line. These are amazingly efficient numbers for such a high volume of shots -- 60.9 percent from the field, 53.8 percent from three and 90 percent from the line.
Over his 20-year NBA career, Bryant has been a phenomenal scorer. He'll finish his career as the third-leading scorer in NBA history. Since the 2005-2006 season, there have only been eight times when a player has scored 60 or more points in single game. Bryant has accounted for five of those. This, of course, includes his 81-point game.
