Former President Barack Obama remembered Kobe Bryant Sunday as one of the NBA’s great players.
“Kobe was a legend on the court and just getting started in what would have been just as meaningful a second act,” Obama tweeted after it was confirmed Bryant was among five people killed in a helicopter crash outside Los Angeles.
Kobe was a legend on the court and just getting started in what would have been just as meaningful a second act. To lose Gianna is even more heartbreaking to us as parents. Michelle and I send love and prayers to Vanessa and the entire Bryant family on an unthinkable day.
