Wonder who Kobe Bryant was?

By
I scrolled through my feeds yesterday and I saw a particular face everywhere. I became curious and wanted to know who this person was. I found out he was a basketball player. I have never really been a lover of basketball and I know basketball isn’t a game for all. There are certain features and characteristics an individual must possess before you can be called a basketball player.

Inasmuch as I wanted to know who he was, I also felt really sad about his demise and wondered why a young man would be gone too soon. Well God has all the answers.

The young man was Kobe Bryant, an outstanding basketball player and if you wonder why you could and can still see pictures of him on friends social media feeds and status. This is what to know.           
He isn’t just called a legend in Basketball but for the records, he was an American Professional Basketball player who has played his entire 20-season career in the National Basketball Association with the Los Angeles Lakers. He entered the NBA directly from high school and won five NBA championships.

Kobe was an 18-time all-star, 15- time member of the All-NBA team, 12- time member of the All defensive team and the 2008 NBA most valuable player (MVP). It’s no news that Kobe was widely regarded as one of the greatest basketball players of all time.
He was married to Vanessa Laine Bryant and they had 4 beautiful daughters,
but an unfortunate incident happened and both Kobe and his lovely daughter Gianna and 8 other people died in a helicopter crash on the 26th of January 2020 outside Los Angeles, he was 41 years old.

“Life isn’t about all the steps you have taken or all the places you have been it’s about the footprint you live behind”

This isn’t just a tribute of a man who left his footprints behind. This is a reminder to us all.

Rest In Peace to a Basketball Legend
Rest In Peace Black mamba
Rest In Peace Gigi
God has the answers
#Kobe Bryant
