Priyanka Chopra shares a sweet, subtle nail art tribute to Kobe Bryant

WATCH: This is the story of Kobe Bryant’s life

Celebrities such as Alicia Keys and Lizzo shared their condolences for the late basketball legend Kobe Bryant during this year's Grammys.

In addition to those who honored his legacy during the affair, actress Priyanka Chopra also paid tribute in an admirable way on the red carpet.

While her ivory, sequin-encrusted, silk crêpe cady kimono look by Ralph & Russo caught the attention of many, the number "24" drawn on her index finger to honor Bryant's famous jersey number was just as -- if not more -- special.
