It has been just over two weeks since Kobe Bryant tragically lost his life on Jan. 26 along with his daughter Gianna Bryant and seven others.
And while a sense of normalcy appears to be returning to the sports world, the remembrance of Bryant will never fade. This was on full display at the 2020 Academy Awards — or the Oscars — when tributes to Bryant were plentiful.
The Oscars are home to one of Bryant’s proudest achievements. In 2018, Bryant took home the Oscar for Best Animated Short Film for “Dear Basketball” just two years removed from retiring from the Los Angeles Lakers.
