Vanessa Bryant Says NBA Hall of Fame is Pinnacle of Kobe's Career

Vanessa Bryant just told the world how proud she is of Kobe, who has been honored as the next NBA Hall of Fame inductee.

Vanessa sat with daughter Natalia as she fought back tears, saying how proud she was of Kobe's posthumous accomplishment.

Kobe will be inducted as part of the class of 2020, and Vanessa says it's pinnacle of her late husband's storied, NBA career that spanned 20 years with the Lakers.

Vanessa says, "It's an incredible accomplishment and honor, and we're extremely proud of him. Obviously, we wish he was here with us to celebrate, but it's definitely the peak of his NBA career and every accomplishment that he had as an athlete was a stepping stone to be here.
