It turns out viral TikTok star Nathan Apodaca is a Kobe Bryant and Los Angeles Lakers fan, and he celebrated in style after L.A. won the NBA championship on Sunday.

Apodaca gained fame for a video of him singing along to ā€œDreamsā€ by Fleetwood Mac while skateboarding and drinking cranberry juice. He recreated the TikTok video on Monday, only in slightly different fashion.

Rather than ā€œDreams,ā€ Apodaca sang along to Queen's ā€œWe Are the Championsā€ while donning a Kobe Bryant jersey and drinking champagne instead of cranberry juice.

Plenty of famous stars also celebrated the Lakers' win, but Nathan Apodaca seems to be cashing in on his newfound celebrity and putting on for his team in style.

The Lakers captured their 17th championship in franchise history and first since Kobe Bryant and Co. defeated the Boston Celtics in 2010.

In a year when Bryant tragically passed away following a helicopter crash and a global pandemic threatened the season, the Purple and Gold emerged victorious. For his part, Apodaca celebrated in style while also honoring the ā€œBlack Mamba.ā€
