The world is about to witness a moment that will etch itself into the annals of history – the unveiling of a long-awaited tribute to the late Lakers legend, Kobe Bryant. Vanessa Bryant, the wife of the five-time champion, shared a video from the heart of the Lakers facility, announcing the much-anticipated date of the statue’s unveiling – February 8, 2024.

“As you know, Kobe played his entire 20-year NBA career as a Los Angeles Laker,” said Vanessa Bryant in a video posted at 8:24 Thursday morning. “Since arriving in this city and joining the Lakers organization, he felt at home here, playing in the City of Angels. On behalf of the Lakers, my daughters and me, I am so honored that, right in the center of Los Angeles, in front of the place known as the house that Kobe built, we are going to unveil his statue so that his legacy can be celebrated forever.”
