The Warriors returned home on Saturday for their first game at Chase Center since the passing of Kobe Bryant, dedicating the evening to the late NBA legend and his daughter, Gianna, who with seven others lost their lives in a helicopter crash in Southern California on Jan. 26.
Ahead of Saturday’s matchup against the Lakers, Head Coach Steve Kerr shared, “It will be very emotional tonight for all of us to honor Kobe. Our first home game back and it will feel strange and we are still grieving. It’s amazing the sense of loss even for those of us that didn’t know him very well.
