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)

      Summer Olympic Games Los Angeles 2028 Qualification Systems

      Weightlifting formula is more or less similar to 2020 which was considered terrible by everybody!    this is a tough sport, you can't be in your best shape for too many events. there will be risks of serious injuries this way. with these rules you need 5 good results to qualify. if you bomb out in an event to score a zero you are out of the Olympics unless you replace it with another event. which means most of these poor guys have to participate in 7-8 events (and not just 5) to make up for possible bomb outs.    most importantly if you get injured anytime during this period (almost 2 years) you are out of the Olympics! that's how Sohrab Moradi missed the Tokyo Olympics despite breaking the WR during the qualification period. you can miss the Olympics in 2028 if you get injured late 2026 !  Karlos Nasar couldn't win the Olympic title if we had these rules in 2024   I understand 2024 qualification formula wasn't great either, it had its own flaws but this one is much worse for threatening athletes' health.
