LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — What do you get a retired NBA player who has everything? Apparently, if you're Snoop Dogg, a flashy car!

The rapper Wednesday gave Kobe Bryant a gold and purple convertible.

Bryant took to Twitter to share the news, tweeting: "Unbelievable retirement gift from my man Snoop today."

Snoop also turned to social media to share the news, tweeting in part: "Enjoy it Mamba" with a picture of the hood of the car, which features some action shots with Snoop himself front and center.
