Rest in peace, Kobe

#24 Kobe Bryant waiving NBA Star player legend

NBA Star and basketball legend, Kobe Bryant has died on a helicopter crash, Sunday (USA time).

It was 4am in the morning in the Philippines when I saw the news on social media. :(

TMZ Sports first confirmed it on a tweet:

BREAKING: Kobe Bryant died in a helicopter crash in Calabasas Sunday morning. Kobe was traveling with at least 3 other people in his private helicopter when it went down. Emergency personnel responded, but nobody on board survived. https://t.co/EG9YHW07hv pic.twitter.com/FkgfyvHlnc

It just saddened me since Bryant has been a part of my childhood memories. I won't forget those times in early 2000's when he has brought multiple championships for Los Angeles Lakers.
