I join the rest of Los Angeles in mourning the tragic death of Kobe Bryant, his daughter, and others.— Adam Schiff (@RepAdamSchiff) January 26, 2020
One of the greatest basketball players of all time, Kobe had a grace and athleticism unmatched in the NBA.
My prayers are with his family and friends, and all Lakers fans. https://t.co/QYT6j4okVi
Kobe was a legend on the court and just getting started in what would have been just as meaningful a second act. To lose Gianna is even more heartbreaking to us as parents. Michelle and I send love and prayers to Vanessa and the entire Bryant family on an unthinkable day.— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) January 26, 2020
