Brooklyn Nets G Spencer Dinwiddie reflects on moment shared with Kobe Bryant (Video)
Error 0:
With tears running down his cheek, Brooklyn Nets guard Spencer Dinwiddie discussed a special moment shared with the late Kobe Bryant.
The NBA universe lost an all-time great on Sunday, Jan. 26, 2020. At the age of 41, Kobe Bryant, as well as his 13-year-old daughter Gianna, were among nine victims who tragically died in a helicopter crash in Los Angeles County.
The dear friendship shared between Bryant and Kyrie Irving, who did not play due to personal reasons Sunday night in the Brooklyn Nets‘ matchup against the New York Knicks, was well documented.
With Irving out, Spencer Dinwiddie got the start.
Dinwiddie, a native of Los Angeles, grew up—like many others—idolizing Bryant.
