Sporto pasaulis negali atsigauti po tragiškos krepšinio žvaigždės Kobe Bryanto žūties.

Praeityje jis nešė „Lakers“ lyderio rolę ir dvidešimt metų buvo kone pagrindinis herojus Los Andželo mieste, o vietos spauda jam ne kartą skyrė skambias antraštes ir leidinių viršelius.

Savo pagarbą legendai atidavė ir „LA Times“ žurnalistas Michaelas Whitley, kuris socialiniame tinkle patalpino įsimintiniausias šio leidinio frazes penkiskart NBA čempionui K.Bryantui.
