Condolences to his two girls.

Kobe has 4 daughters doesn't he? They just had a daughter Last year who is less than 1, won't even know her dad.

I never liked the guy. Always thought he tried to be something he wasn't, but nobody deserves this. RIP.

Haven't posted in here for years, but this really hit hard. So many long nights watching the Lakers. Thanks for the good memories Kobe, rest in peace.

Not even a Laker fan, but I just realized how much Kobe was part of my life growing up as a basketball fan. Hell, even the whole Chappelle thing where everyone would yell his name on a fade on the court to simply throwing away trash.

This is the saddest celebrity related death I've ever seen. To me I grew up watching Kobe through high school and would stream every games via league pass in the library after basketball practice. I was a huge fan and everyone knew it.

He was such a thoughtful and interesting guy who had a undying belief in himself. He will truly be missed and I pray for his family. Rest in Peace.

It’s such a little thing and it doesn’t matter at all, but I was really looking forward to seeing his induction and hearing his speech.
