NBA World Remembers Kobe Bryant
Bryant was only 41 years old and seemed to be having a great time in retirement.
He was someone who stayed in touch with the ever-changing NBA and who young players could talk to for advice.
The star never seemed to be too famous to help out just about anyone.
Bryant was the face of the Los Angeles Lakers for two decades and it is hard to imagine any future member of the team even getting close to his legacy with the franchise.
He won five titles, went to 18 All-Star Games, and was the league MVP in 2008,
And he did it all in a Lakers uniform.
This tragedy is one that will be remembered every January 26 for years to come.
While incredibly sad, it is nice for NBA fans to come together to remember one of the game’s greatest players.
Everyone can share why Bryant was special to them and how he inspired them in some way.
Bryant deserves all the tributes he is getting and he will forever be a legend not just for his achievements on the court, but for what he meant to so many off the court as well.
