Kobe Bryant Dead, Dies in Helicopter Crash

Just saw this. Hoping it isnt true. Terrible.

Horrible, RIP Kobe, feel so bad for his daughters. I believe he has 2-3 daughters. Sad day.

I waited to confirm before posting...just so sad. Prayers said for his family.

This is the worst news I’ve heard in a long, long time. This legit makes me sad.

Four daughters.

Shocking! RIP Great One! Sad for his family!

Life is short.

 

This is horrible news.

 

RIP Kobe.

Sooo sad!! RIP to a great guy and NBA legend!

Loved Kobe. Sad to hear this, you just never know.

His private helicopter went down hill side on a mountain in CA, crash site looks looks unsurvivable. Wish the reports were wrong, 41 years old.

Woj confirmed it. Sucks.

Awful news. You really never know when the time will come.

So sad hate it was his family. I’ve always been a Lakers fan from the 70’s. He was a true Laker Champion RIP Kobe.

Maybe I just misunderstood the news guy reporting from LA, that his daughters were on the helicopter as well?
