Bryant’s jersey was the top selling jersey in China for the past two years and has now officially taken over Europe. With Kobe’s success in international play this Summer, and easily becoming one of the biggest sports icons in the world, everything Kobe related has grown exponentially.

A Kobe Bryant jersey is the most commonly worn jersey in Europe and his teammate, Pau Gasol, holds the right to the third most popular jersey. Other players on the list include Kevin Garnett, Lebron James, Tony Parker, Allen Iverson, Jose Calderon, Andrea Bargnani, and the most surprising on the list, Marco Belinelli.

If you take a look at the list, it’s quite obvious how it comes together. The biggest and most popular names of the NBA combined with the biggest European imports playing in the league. I’ve got to admit, I’m surprised to not see Dirk Nowitzki on the list.
