Have we ever seen someone who was one of the best players ever in their sport and super popular die in a tragic accident at such a young age? I’m trying to think of something similar but I just can’t.

The timing is so strange with this happening after Lebron passed him in all time scoring last night.

One of my favorite athletes ever.

And NBA TV is showing games from last night with nothing even on the bottom of the screen. Disgraceful.


Probably just waiting for confirmation - can't screw this up.

If it was his private helicopter he was more than likely the pilot

I really hope his daughters weren’t on board.

Shocking and sad and reminder of fragility of life one hour to the next and days on and on.

I have heard 5 people dead. Kobe was traveling with 3 others. That does make sense that it could be his daughters as he just had a baby girl in 2019 so that 4th girl probably was with her mother. Unreal.
Please tell me he wasn’t with

how would Kobe + pilot + 4 daughters make sense?
CBS News reported it too, but maybe they're wrong.

I don't know.
