There are many professional athletes that I know and respect these people are Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O’Neal, Larry Bird,Magic Johnson, LeBron James, Michael Jordan. But my most respected and liked was Kobe Bryant.

Kobe Bryant was an inspiration to the young and old, a strong leader, an American professional basketball player,a husband and a father. He was one of the best basketball shooters.He was a wonderful influential that captured every positive mind.

Five years ago he was interviewed at University of Southern California. (my former university, Trojan)I watched the interview life.It was a great interview. In that interview we learned a lot about Kobe Bryant. The way he spoke,the beginning of his career , his retirement and his plans after his retirement. Unfortunately things changed rapidly and unexpectedly. Not even the greatest prophet prophesied this.

And on January 26th 2020 there was an helicopter crash in Calabasas California. I woke up hearing this terrible news about helicopter crash in Calabasas that involved Kobe Bryant, his daughter and six other people. I rejected that news,refused to accept but it was a reality. Kobe Bryant was gone.
