Kobe Bryant -- Rolling Out Purple & Gold Carpet for Terror Train Heroes

File this one under "stories you gotta love" -- those American heroes who stopped the terrorist plot in France last month are about to get the royal treatment ... courtesy of Kobe Bryant and the Lakers.

Lakers reps tell TMZ Sports, the team and NBA Commish Adam Silver have invited Anthony Sadler, Spencer Stone and Alek Skarlatos to a game this upcoming season. We're told the visit will include hooking up with Kobe.

They haven't figured out which game they'll attend yet, and the team is currently coordinating the meet and greet details with the Mamba's peeps.

You'll recall, Sadler was wearing Lakers gear when they foiled the attack, so this is a well-deserved perk ... to say the least.
