Many of today’s NBA players, including rookies such as Jalen Hood-Schifino, continue to admit they grew up as fans of Bryant and still look to him as a model and an inspiration.
Every summer, basketball fans await the latest release of NBA 2K, the video game franchise that has become iconic over the years, and this year, Bryant will be featured on the cover of the game.
