The Los Angeles Lakers are finalizing plans to unveil a Kobe Bryant statue on Mamba Day 2024 which will feature Gigi Bryant.
Almost four years later the death of Kobe Bryant still doesn’t make any sense. His daughter Gigi dying in the crash with him makes the loss even more devastating. The loss impacted every part of the world and still does in the present day. In Los Angeles fresh murals still pop up paying tribute to the Lakers star and his daughter. August is unofficially Mamba month with 8/8 and 8/24 both being celebrated as Mamba Day. According to The DailyMail, the Lakers are finalizing plans to celebrate August 8th 2024 in a big way. Reportedly Jeanie Buss and the Lakers organization will be unveiling a Kobe Bryant statue outside of Crypto.com Arena. The statue will also pay tribute to his daughter Gigi and Vanessa Bryant is involved in the plans.
