KB824: Journey of a Legend

Kobe Bryant was one of basketball most endearing superstars of the modern era amassing over 30,000 points, 5 NBA championships, 3 total Most Valuable Player awards (2x Finals, 1x regular season), and even Olympic Gold. He was known for his incredible work ethic and absolute skill and footwork in the game of basketball. More recently, he won an Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film with Dear Basketball. KB824 is a web application that will take a look into his illustrious 20 year career with the Los Angeles Lakers.

UPDATE: On January 26, 2020, a world lost an icon. Kobe was doing what he does best, being a father, and was on his way taking his beautiful and talented daugther Gianna to a youth game. On the way there, reduced visibility caused the heliocopter to crash killing all 9 aboard. While my heart is still heavy, I know his memories and teachings will still endure the test of time. Thank you Kobe for everything you did. Much love. Mamba out 🎤
