This is honestly so hard to believe. Like many, I grew up in awe of Kobe, the way he played & the man he was off the court.I was never a big basketball fan, but I was always a big Kobe fan. RIP, you transcended your sport & left a mark on millions of kids like me around the world https://t.co/aHBsRAFMLx
