RIP Kobe Bryant
 

Wasn't a huge fan, but I respected him... RIP.

Just died in a helicopter crash:

I thought it was a hoax at first but then I saw it reported on multiple news sites. RIP absolute legend.

You never know.

Omg it was just reported that his daughters were with him?

Really enjoyed watching Kobe once upon a time. One of the greats for sure.

Really? I heard a little while ago that no family was with him. Everything I've read so far seem to indicate his family was not with him.

I swear that’s what I heard on abc news. Maybe I heard wrong. I hope so.

You're right. My bad... just heard that.

That's just awful.

Looks like they are saying the other passengers have yet to be identified.

Now I'm hearing ABS misworded that and his kids were not on board. Really hope that's true.

+1. It happens so fast and unexpected.

RIP Kobe.

Man I was really hoping I heard wrong. This is too tragic.

They've confirmed his older daughter was with him - they were on the way to a basketball camp or practice or something. I'm just hoping the others weren't her young friends/teammates... Can't imagine what his wife and other kids are going through right now...

It's pretty well confirmed it was his 13 year old daughter and another parent and daughter/son... along with the pilot.
