Tom Brady Shares Emotional Instagram Post Following Kobe Bryant’s Death

Lakers legend Kobe Bryant lost his life in a tragic helicopter accident in California. Bryant and four other people were traveling in his private helicopter over Calabasas. A fire broke out and sent the chopper spiraling from the atmosphere. Bryant’s death shocked the world, and Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was among the first athletes to address the tragedy.

TB12 took to his Instagram account to share a pic of him and Bryant in his early days. Hundreds of thousands followers shared the thought and delivered an emotional message to honor the superstar.

The deadly crash happened at 10 a.m. local time amid foggy weather in Calabasas. Bryant’s chopper sparked a brush fire on impact that affected the initial rescue efforts.

Reports confirm that there are no survivors, and they still can’t confirm the cause of the deadly crash. Authorities investigate the crash and confirm that at least five people lost their life. We don’t have any information regarding the names of the victims, but we do know that Bryant’s wife Vanessa wasn’t among the victims.

Bryant was survived by his four children, and the youngest toddler was born in June.

Tragic death

The Black Mamba spent two decades playing with the Los Angeles Lakers and has an army of athletes and fans supporting his name. He was often mentioned in the GOAT debate, and many would agree that his game was impeccable. Bryant won five championships and made 18 All-Star Games before calling it a career. He retired in 2016.

Bryant dies hours after roasting LeBron James for passing him for third on the NBA’s all-time scoring list. LeBron didn’t quite brag about the achievement and used the occasion to praise Bryant. He was impressed by his game and talked about the way Bryant’s skills and talent affected his career. LeBron learned so much from Bryant, and he grew up idolizing the legend.

Bryant’s death has yet to be investigated, and the world grieves following his death. It was terrible, and fans can’t believe the news. Many thought it was fake news, but the information was confirmed by several outlets. Rest in peace, Kobe Bryant!
