Basketball legend Kobe Bryant has been tragically killed in a helicopter crash alongside three other people, it has been reported.

The former LA Lakers star was involved in a lethal crash in California.

He was aged just 41 and leaves his wife Vanessa and their four daughters – Gianna, Natalia and Bianca and their newborn Capri – behind.

One of the greatest

Kobe is widely considered one of the greatest NBA players of all time – making 18 All-Star teams during his 20 year career with the Lakers.

He was a first-round pick in the 1996 draft, winning 5 NBA championships, 2 NBA Finals MVPs and he was the league MVP in ’08.

The Lakers famously retired both of Kobe’s jerseys, number 8 and 24 … the only player in team history to receive that honour.

Tributes

Tributes have been streaming in since the announcement, with RIP legend trending on Twitter.
