Kobe and Gianna Bryant, Alyssa Altobelli, Payton Chester honored at WNBA draft.
Engelbert said Kobe Bryant was"not only a legendary basketball star, but a devoted youth coach," and added that his 13-year-old daughter, 14-year-old Altobelli, and 13-year-old Chester"represented the future of the WNBA."
Two days after her death, the UConn's women's basketball team placed a No. 2 jersey — Gianna Bryant's number — with flowers on their bench during a game against USA Basketball. The team shared a photo of the tribute on social media, and captioned it,"Mambacita is forever a Husky." "It would've been a dream come true for her," Vanessa Bryant said."She worked tirelessly every single day. She wanted to be one of the greatest athletes of all time, just like her daddy."The WNBA also named an award in honor of the father and daughter duo Friday called the Kobe & Gigi Bryant WNBA Advocacy Award.
