Earlier this year the loss of a basketball legend shocked the world. Kobe Bryant had gone head to head with some of the best San Antonio Spurs teams ever and had given the sport of basketball his all over the course of his career. But in his retirement, he was focused on something even bigger.
One of the most heartbreaking moments in the wake of his passing was Elle Duncan remembering their first meeting on Sports Center. The thing that stood out to Duncan, and so many others, was how excited Kobe was to be a girl dad.
