It's down here (Scotland) too. But then I don't follow US Sports and I still knew who he was, like a more recent Michael Jordan or Magic Johnson type. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JQW 288 Posted January 26, 2020 He was an answer to a picture question on Pointless a few days ago - identify the sports star by their clothing/equipment. It was surprising how high he scored. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThePrematureBurial 224 Posted January 26, 2020 Four other passengers died too. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7931909/Kobe-Bryant-dies-Calabasas-helicopter-crash.html Edit: He leaves a wife & four daughters. His youngest is just a baby. I'm no fan of American sports, but it must be a very sad day for his many fans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
