Aaliyah Edwards wore a sick Kobe Bryant tribute jacket to her Mystics-Sparks matchup

Kobe Bryant Aaliyah Edwards WNBA

Aaliyah Edwards recently wore a stone-cold Kobe Bryant jacket to a matchup with the Los Angeles Sparks, and we cannot get over the details.

She has never been shy about her love for Kobe Bryant. Aaliyah has mentioned numerous times that her braids are yellow because of Kobe Bryant and the Lakers. The rookie even wears the number 24, just like Kobe did.

When she arrived at Crypto.com arena Tuesday ahead of a Washington-Los Angeles matchup, she was fittingly wearing a Kobe Byrant-themed jacket. In a new video shared by Nikki Kay of Spectrum News 1, Aaliyah is smiling away as she twirls in a sick zip-up tribute to Kobe with her fabulous basketball purse she wore to the 2024 WNBA Draft.
