OKLAHOMA CITY – 62 points.
“Amnesty THAT.”
Luka Doncic being one of Gianna Bryant’s favorite players.
Everybody has Kobe Bryant stories. The Mavericks were involved in more than their share of connections through history with the NBA legend, who died along with his 13-year-old daughter Gianna Sunday in a helicopter crash near Los Angeles.
It’s tragic. It’s unfair. And it’s unbelievable. Really, there’s no way to describe what the NBA feels when a shocking, way-too-soon death takes a legend.
It’s reminiscent of the Monday in October, 1999, when a small jet carrying six people lost air pressure and eventually crashed in South Dakota.
