Nine people, including Kobe Bryant and daughter, killed in helicopter crash

Kobe Bryant: Basketball legend dies in helicopter crash

Quote:

US basketball legend Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna were among nine people killed in a helicopter crash in the city of Calabasas, California. Bryant, 41, and Gianna, 13, were travelling in a private helicopter when it came down and burst into flames. The LA county sheriff said there were no survivors. Bryant, a five-time NBA champion, played for the LA Lakers throughout his career and is considered one of the greatest players in the game's history.

His life was cut short, but perhaps even more tragically, his 13-year-old daughter and seven other people were also killed.

Gigi Bryant Was a Great Basketball Player

Quote:

Gianna “Gigi” Bryant died on Sunday morning at the age of 13, one of nine people killed in a helicopter crash that also claimed her father, 41-year-old Kobe Bryant. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported that the helicopter was en route to a travel basketball game.

Apparently she was quite a promising young ball player in her own right, but now we'll never know what kind of career she might have had.

(I realize there was already another thread on the topic, but the entire thread was moved to AAH, so this is to start over from a clean slate.)
