Kobe and I are about the same age. I remember hearing about this amazing basketball player who was on the east coast who took Brandi to prom and was going to go straight into the NBA out of high school. Wow did you show the world and those who might of thought skipping college wasn't the greatest idea. You became larger than life. Your work ethic and love for the game was like nothing I've ever seen. I respected how you played, your honesty, your support of women's athletics, your love for your family. Losing you and those with you broke so many hearts. Your impact on the world was nothing short of great. You will always be missed
