Kobe Bryant might only be retired for a year, but the dad puns are in midseason form.

The Los Angeles Lakers legend was asked if he orders kobe beef steak in light of his name, to which he responded “It's rare that I do.”

Bryant got his name from the popular, yet rare Japanese delicacy often made into expensive steaks due to its tenderness and well-marbled texture — one that is almost originally unseen in the U.S. market.

His pun game has already progressed to Tim Duncan level and there is no going back from there, making him not only a successful entrepreneur, but another dad content to share his unusual wit every now and again.
