The Los Angeles Lakers produced an emotional ceremony to honor the late Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna and seven other people killed in a helicopter crash Sunday morning in Southern California. It was the team's first game since the accident killed the player who won five NBA titles for Los Angeles. The team held a 24.2-second moment of silence and reserved two courtside seats with bouquets of roses, donning the chairs with Kobe's No. 24 jersey and Gianna's Mamba Academy No. 2 jersey. Fans chanted "Kobe, Kobe!" and "GG, GG!" |
