Just saw this headline and felt genuinely stunned. It feels like they should stop playing basketball today or something.

Still shocked and stunned by this news. I wasn't a big Laker fan but always recognized the generational talent that he possessed. Sad day for sports fans.

His thirteen-year-old daughter Gigi died in the crash too, as did one of her teammates and that teammate's parent. Just so terribly sad.

By no means am I a Laker fan, but you can see what a massive impact he had on basketball and the city of Los Angeles.
His daughter passing too made me choke up a bit. Could see Sabrina tearing up after the women's game too.
RIP Kobe and Gigi. You guys will be missed.

3 of the passengers on the helicopter were the father, mother, and sister of former Oregon baseball player JJ Altobelli.

Kobe was one of my idols growing up. This is just crazy that he is gone. Especially felt like we were starting to see a new kind of mentor Kobe - so much left on the table it huts. Puts a lot into perspective. If yall have any trivial things with friends or loved ones , make it right. You life is fleeting so make sure the things that matter, matter.
