"Congratulations Uncle P! Congratulations @Lakers Kobe was right RP 'stay the course- block out the noise' - @kobebryant."

MOURNING FAMILY’S DEATH

In January 2020, Vanessa sadly lost Kobe and her daughter Gianna Bryant after the pair were involved in a helicopter crash. Noting the tragic deaths of her family members she added:

"Wish Kobe and Gianna were here to see this."

THE TEAM’S WIN

Over the weekend, the Los Angeles Lakers were crowned 2020’s NBA champions. The team was led to victory at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida, by LeBron James and Anthony Davis.

Another added factor to the Los Angeles Lakers’ uniforms was the number 2 patch.

They won over the Miami Heat with a 106 to 93 score in Game 6 of their best of seven series. The victory is the seventeenth championship for the legendary basketball team.

THE TEAM’S 2010 WIN

The first win for the team over the Boston Celtics was in 2010 and it was led by Kobe and Pau Gasol. The Los Angeles Lakers actually dedicated their season to Vanessa’s late husband.

The team paid tribute to the late legendary player by wearing “Black Mamba” uniforms on Friday during Game 5. The basketball team actually started honoring Kobe in July when the playoffs began.

BLACK MAMBA UNIFORMS

The Los Angeles Lakers brought back their "Black Mamba" uniforms for the first time since the 2017 to 2018 season. Another added factor to their uniforms was the number 2 patch.

The patch was meant to memorize Kobe’s daughter, Gianna, who wore the number while playing at the Mamba Sports Academy. The late star was actually the one who designed the uniforms.
