Apparently ABC News came with a rumour (?) saying his daughters were on the helicopter as well..

Not confirmed. Though I haven’t seen anything not confirming their deaths either.

Kobe Bryant is an absolute legend. I would make it a priority to watch Kobe and the Lakers whenever he was on tv. I stopped watching the NBA as much when he retired. He introduced me to basketball. He will be missed!! RIP KOBE

Yes, this is all true for me as well.

and now rumors says that all his 4 daughters were with him in the helicopter 

I’m hearing rumors saying 3. Again, as a journalist, I cannot stress how important it is that we don’t buy into fake information/rumors. There’s a good chance that some of his family was on board (since the numbers work out), but the LAPD has yet to confirm any of the identities of those dead. Bryant has definitely passed, but let’s wait a while before saying that his daughters have died.

I'm very shocked and I can't get out of it that Kobe is dead ... This is a great blow for the basketball family, as well as for the whole sport ...

Not just the basketball, for the whole sporting world

TMZ is now reporting that at least one of his daughter has died :cry:. Again, I wouldn’t take it as final (I’d never take anything TMZ says as serious), but it seems true. Gianna (13)

    • Someone please tell me every single athlete who didn't qualify for the big air final has at least one more event to go? The chance of athletes' Olympics being done before the opening ceremony would be utterly ridiculous...
    • Don't know what they were saying to each other, but one thing on time management is that there is never any debate in : they just instantly agree with what the other is planning to do.
