Literally had a reporter say that during the cut from the pro bowl that his daughters were on board. So either they were or news focked up really bad (which I don’t doubt nowadays).

I don’t care if it’s inaccurate! We need to be first and trending on Twitter!”. I’ve heard multiple things, including that Kobe is a licensed pilot and was flying the copter himself while his 4 daughters were on board Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
patweisers44 700 Posted January 26, 2020 Dude could flat out score the basketball. Hate the Lakers but respected Kobe's game. Throwback to the previous (better) era in the NBA before everyone was friends with everyone else Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now ABC is confirming that Kobe’s daughters weren’t onboard. This is why I hate the media.
