Paris Train Heroes Honored By Lakers ... High Fives from Kobe!

The 3 American heroes who bravely teamed up to BEAT DOWN a gun-toting terrorist on a Paris-bound train were honored by the Lakers Sunday night ... with Kobe Bryant personally giving all 3 guys their props.

All 3 heroes got the VIP treatment at Staples Center -- including Alek Skarlatos, Anthony Sadler and Spencer Stone ... who made the trip despite recovering from stab wounds suffered in a recent bar attack.

As we previously reported, Sadler was wearing a Lakers shirt when he and his friends tackled and subdued the gunman during the August incident.

The team took notice and wanted to thank the men -- giving them VIP seats, personalized jerseys and private meetings with players and team officials, including Jeanie Buss.

BTW, the Lakers won yesterday -- so, INVITE 'EM BACK!!!!
