[bjtheman1]

In a move that has been rumored within the trading card industry for weeks, Panini America later today will announce that it has reached an exclusive agreement with Los Angeles Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant.

The deal, alluded to early Tuesday morning in a tweet from CNBC Sports Business Reporter Darren Rovell, is expected to be a multiyear agreement that has international potential and ends Bryant’s longtime association with Panini America rival Upper Deck.
