The World Mourns NBA Legend Kobe Bryant

BASKETBALL

Kobe Bryant, the transformational NBA legend, died in a helicopter crash in California on Sunday. Kobe’s 13-year old daughter Gianna and seven others were with the 41-year old superstar. Bryant was en route to coach in a game at his Mamba Sports Academy in Thousand Oaks.

Kobe entered the NBA right out of high school and played all 20 of his pro seasons with the Los Angeles Lakers. His accomplishments included winning 5 Championships, a 2008 MVP, two-time Finals MVP, 18-times All-Star, four-time All-Star MVP, and two gold medals with USA Basketball in 2008 and 2012. He was also widely revered for his work ethic, his competitive spirit, and his commitment to being a loving and dedicated father. Rest in peace Kobe, Gianna and the others who died in this horrible tragedy.
