Last Sunday (Jan. 26), the world lost an icon — the NBA superstar Kobe Bryant – whose talent influenced athletes all around the globe. He was one of the most famous and greatest athletes in history.
At 41, Kobe Bryant died in a helicopter crash Sunday in California along with her daughter Gianna Bryant and seven others (our heart goes out to the family, friends, and colleagues of the tragedy victims) — it was untimely and it was like yesterday Kobe Bryant was scoring 60 points in his final NBA game, getting applauded by Los Angeles Lakers fans who have worshipped him for two decades as one of the city’s favored son.
Rock Legends mourned the passing of Kobe Bryant as well.

At Kobe Bryant’s final game last 2016, Flea of Red Hot Chilli Peppers kicked off the night when he was invited to perform a special sendoff and played a bass-only version of The Star-Spangled Banner.

During his NBA career, Kobe Bryant did things on the court and was the most fearsome player to ever play the game of basketball who has inspired a generation of players in his wake, transcended the game itself and was a legend, an icon, and a Hall of Famer.
