On the 26th of January 2020, Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna passed away following a helicopter crash in Calabasas. Seven other people on board the helicopter lost their lives. 

Bryant spent his 20-year stint in the National Basketball League (NBA) with the Los Angeles Lakers, winning the championship five times. 

The 41-year-old is viewed as one of NBA's greatest. Motorsport paid their respects to the former shooting guard.

  • Far too early for them both. My thoughts go to their family, to lose two family members in one accident..

    • Yes, truly a tragedy. He's done so much good on and off the court. A good role model for all athletes and aspiring athletes.
