Lakers Family Celebrates Legend’s Birthday…
August 23 marks the birthday of the legendary Kobe Bryant, who would have turned 47-years-old this Saturday. His legacy, as strong as a superhero’s cape in a hurricane, keeps inspiring fans worldwide. The Lakers cherish their championships, and with five under his belt, Kobe checked that box with all the finesse of a magician finding rabbits in his sneakers. As members of the Lakers family, including Vanessa Bryant, LeBron James, and others, used social media to pay tribute, the memory of Kobe continues to shine brightly like a disco ball in a silent reading room.
In addition to his basketball achievements, Bryant’s life was full of dynamic successes, like racking up achievements faster than a cheetah on a skateboard. He was set to make waves outside the court as well, becoming a best-selling author and an inspiring coach. It’s regrettable he won’t see Luka Doncic wear the Lakers’ purple and gold one day, but Kobe’s legacy rolls on. The announcement that Warner Bros. is working on a Kobe Bryant movie adds to how he’s celebrated beyond the court, just like a rockstar who keeps topping the charts long after their farewell tour.
