Kobe Bryant<\/a><\/strong> died in a helicopter crash<\/a> on Sunday. He was 41 years old.<\/p>\n

The NBA legend was one of five people killed in the tragic accident. The aircraft went down in a hillside in Calabasas, Calif. at around 10:00 a.m. that day. His daughter, Gianna<\/strong> “GiGi<\/strong>” Maria<\/strong>–Onore Bryant<\/strong>, was killed, as well. She was 13 years old<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The Los Angeles Lakers star was married to his wife, Vanessa Bryant<\/strong>. In addition to being a father to Gigi, he was the proud parent to Natalia<\/strong> (17), Bianka<\/strong> (3) and Capri<\/strong><\/a> (7 months). <\/p>\n

“I love having my girls,” Bryant said during an interview with Extra<\/em> three years ago.<\/p>\n

Several celebrities and athletes paid tribute<\/a> to Bryant on social media. Shaquille O’Neal<\/strong> was one of the stars <\/a>to honor Bryant.<\/p>\n

“There’s no words to express the pain I’m going through with this tragedy of losing my [niece] Gigi & my brother @kobebryant,” O’Neal tweeted along with a series of photos on Sunday. “I love u and u will be missed. My condolences goes out to the Bryant family and the families of the other passengers on board. IM SICK RIGHT NOW.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
