Kobe Bryant was remembered by basketball players, baseball players

Basketball players and baseball players remembered Kobe Bryant, one of the best basketball players of all time, who would have celebrated his 42nd birthday that day.

The legendary player, who died in a helicopter crash on Jan. 26, was commemorated several times on Sunday during Game Day at the NBA’s Florida headquarters. Boston's Jayson Tatum wore a t-shirt with the player's portrait before and after the match against Philadelphia.

Although his former basketball team that died in tragic circumstances was the Los Angeles Lakers on a day off, head coach Doc Rivers also spoke on the birthday:

"He was a special person, a great player. I don't think we've all recovered," he referred to the tragedy.

Four-time Olympic, three-time world and three-time WNBA champion Diana Taurasi - who has toured several European teams and won the Euroleague with Spartak Moscow in 2009, including László Rátgéber - led the Phoenix Mercury to Washington No. 8 Against Mystics. The player - who was a friend of the legendary basketball player - also gave a speech at the funeral - threw seven triples and 34 points, both from season-high Taurasi.

Many of the baseball players also remembered the legendary athlete. Los Angeles Dodgers players lined up for Bryant’s No. 8 and No. 24 matches against the Colorado Rockies. Before and during the meeting, the projector remembered Bryant and his talented daughter, Gianna, who had also passed away, and had a series of pictures cut in when Bryant visited the Dodgers' meetings, and even when a final clash began with his words. Kike Hernandez, the Dodgers player, made a basketball throw referring to Bryantre in one of the home runs in the 11-3 success, and then indicated in an interview at the end of the match that he is the man he may never forget and “too early”. we lost.
