Kobe Bryant’s daughter, Gianna has had her number two jersey retired by her school basketball team in a special ceremony.
Gianna died in a helicopter crash alongside her father, Kobe Bryant, and seven other people on 26 January.
She was described as the “heart and soul” of Harbor Day School’s basketball team.
During the ceremony, which included emotional speeches from her teachers, fellow students and coaches, it was announced the framed number two jersey with Gianna’s name on the back would be displayed on the wall of the school gym to ‘inspire’ others.
Vanessa Bryant, Gianna’s mum, and Kobe’s wife, shared photos and videos of the event on Instagram, posting moments to followers throughout the night.
“My Gigi. I love you! I miss you. You’ve taught us all that no act of kindness is ever too small. Mommy is still and will ALWAYS be so proud of you Mamacita.”
