Just overheard a coach tell a player, “You need to stop worrying about what everyone else isn’t doing and just start focusing on what you’re bringing to the table.” Solid message for basketball and for life. #BattleintheBoro
We fell to a good Lake Highland Prep team tonight, but I couldn’t be prouder of all my girls! Thank you to all our families and fans for your support and to the girls for all your hard work! To my seniors you put us on the map and I’m proud of all you accomplished in your career!

#KobeBryant talking about his daughter Gianna’s love for the game of basketball with @jimmykimmel is the most heartbreaking thing I have seen in a long long time

Wow. It’s crazy how so many can be affected by such a tragedy of someone we personally didn’t even know. A lot of our connection to Kobe was his strive for greatness, competitiveness, and the way he played and respected the game of basketball. #TwentyFourever #RIPGigi
