UConn basketball honors Gianna Bryant, who dreamed of playing there
The UConn Huskies paid tribute to the late Gianna Bryant, daughter of Kobe, who wanted to one day play there.
Gianna Bryant, Kobe’s daughter, died tragically this weekend along with her father and seven others aboard a helicopter that crashed outside Los Angeles.
She was 13.
Gianna was a budding basketball star. Her father coached her, and talked often about her winning mentality, as well as her evolving game. Gianna’s goal was to play for UConn, a goal that she and her father were working toward.
On Monday night, the UConn women’s basketball team honored her by setting aside a jersey and flowers on the bench in her memory before their exhibition game against Team USA.
The stadium also showed a tribute to Kobe and Gianna on the video board.
