It is not far from the Mamba Academy athletic training center where Kobe was both an owner and an active participant, and where he was reportedly headed to coach his daughter’s game.\nThe crash killed nine people, of which Kobe was one.\nKobe was 41. He and his wife Vanessa have four daughters. Kobe’s 13-year-old daughter Gianna was aboard the helicopter with Kobe (they were on their way to one of her basketball games, along with a fellow teammate of Gianna’s and her parent).\nHis death sent waves of\nsadness and shock around the NBA and beyond\n.\nBryant starred for 20 years in NBA\nKobe had\na 20-year NBA career\nthat will send him to the Hall of Fame (once he becomes eligible). He was a five-time NBA Champion, a 15-time All-NBA player, NBA MVP, two-time scoring champion, two-time Finals MVP, 18-time All-Star, a two-time Gold Medalist for Team USA, and a player who influenced a generation who came up after him. His work ethic was legendary and was part of what rubbed off on LeBron and many others.\nHe teamed with Shaquille O’Neal in a combustible partnership to lead the Lakers to NBA titles in 2000, 2001 and 2002. He later teamed with Pau Gasol to win two more titles in 2009 and 2010.\nBryant retired in 2016 after scoring 60 points in his final NBA game.\nHe stepped away from the game and focused on storytelling, which\nhelped him win an Oscar in 2018\nfor the animated short\n“Dear Basketball.”\nKobe became synonymous with the Lakers and their brand — the loyalty Kobe generated with his fans was unmatched in the modern NBA.\nKobe’s death came just a day after\nLeBron passed him for third All-Time in NBA scoring.\nLeBron talked about how he had grown up idolizing Kobe and the influence Kobe had on his life. Kobe’s last Tweet was about LeBron and, appropriately, the future of the game.\nMore details on the crash\nFrom the AP story on his death:\nJuan Bonilla of Calabasas said he was working on his roof Sunday morning when he heard a helicopter flying low nearby. He said he thought it was a sheriff’s helicopter on a training mission. He heard nothing amiss with the engine or rotors and said he did not see any mechanical issue with the chopper. It was foggy Sunday morning, but he said visibility didn’t seem to be low at the time of the crash.\nFirefighters worked to douse flames that spread through about an acre (.40 hectares) of dry brush, said Art Marrujo, a dispatch supervisor with the Los Angeles County Fire Department.\nFederal Aviation Administration spokesman Allen Kenitzer said the downed chopper was a Sikorsky S-76.\nThe National Transportation Safety Board sent a “go team” of investigators to the site. The NTSB typically issues a preliminary report within about 10 days that will give a rough summary of what investigators have learned. A ruling on the cause can take a year or more.\n“They will look at man, machine and environment,” said Gary C. Robb, an aviation attorney in Kansas City who wrote a textbook on helicopter-crash litigation.\n“They will look at the pilot - was there any indication of fatigue, any indication of a training issue?They’ll scour his or her record,” Robb said. “They will look at this helicopter from stem to stern. They will take the engine to the NTSB metallurgical laboratory outside Washington, D.C., and examine it to see if there was something that malfunctioned in flight.”\nInvestigators will also consider what role might have been played by weather, terrain, radio towers or bird strikes, he said.\nRobb said he has handled many cases involving Sikorsky S-76 crashes and regards the machine as having a good reputation.\n“It is generally regarded as a good helicopter with a good safety record,” he said, “but parts fail, parts break. Anything can happen.”\n[twitter-follow screen_name=‘basketballtalk’ show_count='yes’ text_color='00ccff’]","attrs_markdown":"[Skip

It is not far from the Mamba Academy athletic training center where Kobe was both an owner and an active participant, and where he was reportedly headed to coach his daughter’s game.\n\nThe crash killed nine people, of which Kobe was one.\n\nKobe was 41. He and his wife Vanessa have four daughters. Kobe’s 13-year-old daughter Gianna was aboard the helicopter with Kobe (they were on their way to one of her basketball games, along with a fellow teammate of Gianna’s and her parent).\n\n> [\\#Update](https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Update?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) Downed aircraft is a helicopter.

He was a five-time NBA Champion, a 15-time All-NBA player, NBA MVP, two-time scoring champion, two-time Finals MVP, 18-time All-Star, a two-time Gold Medalist for Team USA, and a player who influenced a generation who came up after him. His work ethic was legendary and was part of what rubbed off on LeBron and many others.\n\nHe teamed with Shaquille O’Neal in a combustible partnership to lead the Lakers to NBA titles in 2000, 2001 and 2002. He later teamed with Pau Gasol to win two more titles in 2009 and 2010.\n\nBryant retired in 2016 after scoring 60 points in his final NBA game.\n\nHe stepped away from the game and focused on storytelling, which [helped him win an Oscar in 2018](https:\/\/nba.nbcsports.com\/2018\/03\/04\/kobe-bryant-won-an-oscar\/) for the animated short [“Dear Basketball.”](https:\/\/nba.nbcsports.com\/2017\/12\/18\/watch-kobe-bryants-dear-basketball-short-film-video\/)\n\nKobe became synonymous with the Lakers and their brand — the loyalty Kobe generated with his fans was unmatched in the modern NBA.\n\nKobe’s death came just a day after [LeBron passed him for third All-Time in NBA scoring.](https:\/\/nba.nbcsports.com\/2020\/01\/26\/watch-lebron-james-pass-kobe-bryant-for-third-on-the-all-time-scoring-list\/)  LeBron talked about how he had grown up idolizing Kobe and the influence Kobe had on his life.

He said he thought it was a sheriff’s helicopter on a training mission. He heard nothing amiss with the engine or rotors and said he did not see any mechanical issue with the chopper. It was foggy Sunday morning, but he said visibility didn’t seem to be low at the time of the crash.\n\nFirefighters worked to douse flames that spread through about an acre (.40 hectares) of dry brush, said Art Marrujo, a dispatch supervisor with the Los Angeles County Fire Department.\n\nFederal Aviation Administration spokesman Allen Kenitzer said the downed chopper was a Sikorsky S-76.\n\nThe National Transportation Safety Board sent a “go team” of investigators to the site. The NTSB typically issues a preliminary report within about 10 days that will give a rough summary of what investigators have learned. A ruling on the cause can take a year or more.\n\n“They will look at man, machine and environment,” said Gary C. Robb, an aviation attorney in Kansas City who wrote a textbook on helicopter-crash litigation.\n\n“They will look at the pilot - was there any indication of fatigue, any indication of a training issue?They’ll scour his or her record,” Robb said. “They will look at this helicopter from stem to stern. They will take the engine to the NTSB metallurgical laboratory outside Washington, D.C., and examine it to see if there was something that malfunctioned in flight.”\n\nInvestigators will also consider what role might have been played by weather, terrain, radio towers or bird strikes, he said.\n\nRobb said he has handled many cases involving Sikorsky S-76 crashes and regards the machine as having a good reputation.\n\n“It is generally regarded as a good helicopter with a good safety record,” he said, “but parts fail, parts break. Anything can happen.”\n\n\\[twitter-follow screen\\_name=‘basketballtalk’ show\\_count='yes’ text\\_color='00ccff’\\]\n\n[![SGAPN.jpg](https:\/\/nbcsports.brightspotcdn.com\/dims4\/default\/49f3298\/2147483647\/strip\/true\/crop\/1920x1080+0+0\/resize\/1440x810!\/quality\/90\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnbc-sports-production-nbc-sports.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com%2Fbrightspot%2Fad%2F62%2Fdf6afd454db9aa11d05fe54698ef%2Fsgapn.jpg)](https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/fantasy\/basketball\/player-news?utm_tags=nbcs1187)\n\n[**Get the latest NBA Player News\\!**](https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/fantasy\/basketball\/player-news?utm_tags=nbcs1187)\n\nRotoworld Player News has you covered for all the latest injuries, game recaps, position battles, trending players and much more.\n\nRELATED STORIES\n\n***\n[![NBA: Atlanta Hawks at Cleveland Cavaliers](https:\/\/nbcsports.brightspotcdn.com\/dims4\/default\/ae3f43b\/2147483647\/strip\/true\/crop\/3448x1943+0+0\/resize\/252x142!\/quality\/90\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnbc-sports-production-nbc-sports.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com%2Fbrightspot%2F0f%2F06%2F4ca75c334aa78eb699eaa983a32c%2Fhttps-api-imagn.com%2Frest%2Fdownload%2FimageID%3D28686720)](https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/nba\/news\/2026-nba-most-improved-player-predictions-nbc-sports-roundtable-is-a-fan-of-nickeil-alexander-walker)\n\n[2026 NBA Most Improved Player predictions: NBC Sports roundtable is a fan of Nickeil Alexander-Walker](https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/nba\/news\/2026-nba-most-improved-player-predictions-nbc-sports-roundtable-is-a-fan-of-nickeil-alexander-walker)\n\n- [![kurt-headshotbw.jpg](https:\/\/nbcsports.brightspotcdn.com\/dims4\/default\/6f9bd5e\/2147483647\/strip\/true\/crop\/300x169+0+65\/resize\/252x142!\/quality\/90\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnbc-sports-production-nbc-sports.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com%2Fbrightspot%2F7d%2F30%2F1fc5e54e4cabbc74f27386a3d08a%2Fkurt-headshotbw.jpg) Kurt Helin](https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/author\/kurt-helin2)\n  ,\n\n- [![kurt-headshotbw.jpg](https:\/\/nbcsports.brightspotcdn.com\/dims4\/default\/6f9bd5e\/2147483647\/strip\/true\/crop\/300x169+0+65\/resize\/252x142!\/quality\/90\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnbc-sports-production-nbc-sports.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com%2Fbrightspot%2F7d%2F30%2F1fc5e54e4cabbc74f27386a3d08a%2Fkurt-headshotbw.jpg) Kurt Helin](https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/author\/kurt-helin2)\n  ,\n***\n[![NBA: Miami Heat at Washington Wizards](https:\/\/nbcsports.brightspotcdn.com\/dims4\/default\/e8c3cdf\/2147483647\/strip\/true\/crop\/3600x2029+0+0\/resize\/252x142!\/quality\/90\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnbc-sports-production-nbc-sports.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com%2Fbrightspot%2Ff0%2F09%2F8657476941fba73e87c34cf9ba1f%2Fhttps-api-imagn.com%2Frest%2Fdownload%2FimageID%3D25816942)](https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/nba\/news\/miami-heat-officially-waive-guard-terry-rozier)\n\n[Miami Heat reportedly to officially waive guard Terry Rozier](https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/nba\/news\/miami-heat-officially-waive-guard-terry-rozier)\n\n- [![kurt-headshotbw.jpg](https:\/\/nbcsports.brightspotcdn.com\/dims4\/default\/6f9bd5e\/2147483647\/strip\/true\/crop\/300x169+0+65\/resize\/252x142!\/quality\/90\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnbc-sports-production-nbc-sports.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com%2Fbrightspot%2F7d%2F30%2F1fc5e54e4cabbc74f27386a3d08a%2Fkurt-headshotbw.jpg) Kurt Helin](https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/author\/kurt-helin2)\n  ,\n\n- [![kurt-headshotbw.jpg](https:\/\/nbcsports.brightspotcdn.com\/dims4\/default\/6f9bd5e\/2147483647\/strip\/true\/crop\/300x169+0+65\/resize\/252x142!\/quality\/90\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnbc-sports-production-nbc-sports.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com%2Fbrightspot%2F7d%2F30%2F1fc5e54e4cabbc74f27386a3d08a%2Fkurt-headshotbw.jpg) Kurt Helin](https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/author\/kurt-helin2)\n  ,\n***\n[![NBA: Sacramento Kings at Golden State Warriors](https:\/\/nbcsports.brightspotcdn.com\/dims4\/default\/c9e41f8\/2147483647\/strip\/true\/crop\/5688x3205+0+293\/resize\/252x142!\/quality\/90\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnbc-sports-production-nbc-sports.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com%2Fbrightspot%2Fc4%2F46%2Fc9661868459c98c2ef68b89e777e%2Fhttps-api-imagn.com%2Frest%2Fdownload%2FimageID%3D28681963)](https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/nba\/news\/nba-says-sacramento-was-not-tanking-with-odd-foul-against-warriors-it-was-just-ineptitude)\n\n[NBA says Sacramento was not tanking with odd foul against Warriors.

Cj\_St\_MlNOW0 January 26, 2020 03:32 PM NBC Sports anchor Mike Tirico reacts to the tragic news of the passing of Kobe Bryant and discusses the career and legacy of the Lakers legend. Kobe Bryant, the legendary Laker star [who was saluted by](https://nba.nbcsports.com/2020/01/26/watch-lebron-james-pass-kobe-bryant-for-third-on-the-all-time-scoring-list/) LeBron James on Saturday night, has died in a helicopter crash in Southern California. The crash took place in Calabasas, an area about 30 miles northwest of the Staples Center, where Kobe starred as a player for more than a decade. It is not far from the Mamba Academy athletic training center where Kobe was both an owner and an active participant, and where he was reportedly headed to coach his daughter’s game. The crash killed nine people, of which Kobe was one. Kobe was 41. He and his wife Vanessa have four daughters. Kobe’s 13-year-old daughter Gianna was aboard the helicopter with Kobe (they were on their way to one of her basketball games, along with a fellow teammate of Gianna’s and her parent). > [\#Update](https://twitter.com/hashtag/Update?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) Downed aircraft is a helicopter.

He was a five-time NBA Champion, a 15-time All-NBA player, NBA MVP, two-time scoring champion, two-time Finals MVP, 18-time All-Star, a two-time Gold Medalist for Team USA, and a player who influenced a generation who came up after him. His work ethic was legendary and was part of what rubbed off on LeBron and many others. He teamed with Shaquille O’Neal in a combustible partnership to lead the Lakers to NBA titles in 2000, 2001 and 2002. He later teamed with Pau Gasol to win two more titles in 2009 and 2010. Bryant retired in 2016 after scoring 60 points in his final NBA game. He stepped away from the game and focused on storytelling, which [helped him win an Oscar in 2018](https://nba.nbcsports.com/2018/03/04/kobe-bryant-won-an-oscar/) for the animated short [“Dear Basketball.”](https://nba.nbcsports.com/2017/12/18/watch-kobe-bryants-dear-basketball-short-film-video/) Kobe became synonymous with the Lakers and their brand — the loyalty Kobe generated with his fans was unmatched in the modern NBA.

He said he thought it was a sheriff’s helicopter on a training mission. He heard nothing amiss with the engine or rotors and said he did not see any mechanical issue with the chopper. It was foggy Sunday morning, but he said visibility didn’t seem to be low at the time of the crash. Firefighters worked to douse flames that spread through about an acre (.40 hectares) of dry brush, said Art Marrujo, a dispatch supervisor with the Los Angeles County Fire Department. Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Allen Kenitzer said the downed chopper was a Sikorsky S-76. The National Transportation Safety Board sent a “go team” of investigators to the site. The NTSB typically issues a preliminary report within about 10 days that will give a rough summary of what investigators have learned. A ruling on the cause can take a year or more. “They will look at man, machine and environment,” said Gary C. Robb, an aviation attorney in Kansas City who wrote a textbook on helicopter-crash litigation. “They will look at the pilot - was there any indication of fatigue, any indication of a training issue?They’ll scour his or her record,” Robb said. “They will look at this helicopter from stem to stern. They will take the engine to the NTSB metallurgical laboratory outside Washington, D.C., and examine it to see if there was something that malfunctioned in flight.” Investigators will also consider what role might have been played by weather, terrain, radio towers or bird strikes, he said. Robb said he has handled many cases involving Sikorsky S-76 crashes and regards the machine as having a good reputation. “It is generally regarded as a good helicopter with a good safety record,” he said, “but parts fail, parts break. Anything can happen.” \[twitter-follow screen\_name=‘basketballtalk’ show\_count='yes’ text\_color='00ccff’\] [![SGAPN.jpg](https://nbcsports.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/49f3298/2147483647/strip/true/crop/1920x1080+0+0/resize/1440x810!/quality/90/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnbc-sports-production-nbc-sports.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com%2Fbrightspot%2Fad%2F62%2Fdf6afd454db9aa11d05fe54698ef%2Fsgapn.jpg)](https://www.nbcsports.com/fantasy/basketball/player-news?utm_tags=nbcs1187) [**Get the latest NBA Player News\!**](https://www.nbcsports.com/fantasy/basketball/player-news?utm_tags=nbcs1187) Rotoworld Player News has you covered for all the latest injuries, game recaps, position battles, trending players and much more.

Kobe Bryant, the legendary Laker star [who was saluted by](https://nba.nbcsports.com/2020/01/26/watch-lebron-james-pass-kobe-bryant-for-third-on-the-all-time-scoring-list/) LeBron James on Saturday night, has died in a helicopter crash in Southern California. The crash took place in Calabasas, an area about 30 miles northwest of the Staples Center, where Kobe starred as a player for more than a decade. It is not far from the Mamba Academy athletic training center where Kobe was both an owner and an active participant, and where he was reportedly headed to coach his daughter’s game. The crash killed nine people, of which Kobe was one. Kobe was 41. He and his wife Vanessa have four daughters. Kobe’s 13-year-old daughter Gianna was aboard the helicopter with Kobe (they were on their way to one of her basketball games, along with a fellow teammate of Gianna’s and her parent). His death sent waves of [sadness and shock around the NBA and beyond](https://nba.nbcsports.com/2020/01/26/reactions-of-shock-sadness-love-for-kobe-bryant-pour-in-following-news-of-his-death/). ### Bryant starred for 20 years in NBA Kobe had [a 20-year NBA career](https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/b/bryanko01.html) that will send him to the Hall of Fame (once he becomes eligible). He was a five-time NBA Champion, a 15-time All-NBA player, NBA MVP, two-time scoring champion, two-time Finals MVP, 18-time All-Star, a two-time Gold Medalist for Team USA, and a player who influenced a generation who came up after him. His work ethic was legendary and was part of what rubbed off on LeBron and many others. He teamed with Shaquille O’Neal in a combustible partnership to lead the Lakers to NBA titles in 2000, 2001 and 2002. He later teamed with Pau Gasol to win two more titles in 2009 and 2010. Bryant retired in 2016 after scoring 60 points in his final NBA game. He stepped away from the game and focused on storytelling, which [helped him win an Oscar in 2018](https://nba.nbcsports.com/2018/03/04/kobe-bryant-won-an-oscar/) for the animated short [“Dear Basketball.”](https://nba.nbcsports.com/2017/12/18/watch-kobe-bryants-dear-basketball-short-film-video/) Kobe became synonymous with the Lakers and their brand — the loyalty Kobe generated with his fans was unmatched in the modern NBA. Kobe’s death came just a day after [LeBron passed him for third All-Time in NBA scoring.](https://nba.nbcsports.com/2020/01/26/watch-lebron-james-pass-kobe-bryant-for-third-on-the-all-time-scoring-list/) LeBron talked about how he had grown up idolizing Kobe and the influence Kobe had on his life. Kobe’s last Tweet was about LeBron and, appropriately, the future of the game. ### More details on the crash From the AP story on his death: Juan Bonilla of Calabasas said he was working on his roof Sunday morning when he heard a helicopter flying low nearby. He said he thought it was a sheriff’s helicopter on a training mission. He heard nothing amiss with the engine or rotors and said he did not see any mechanical issue with the chopper. It was foggy Sunday morning, but he said visibility didn’t seem to be low at the time of the crash. Firefighters worked to douse flames that spread through about an acre (.40 hectares) of dry brush, said Art Marrujo, a dispatch supervisor with the Los Angeles County Fire Department. Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Allen Kenitzer said the downed chopper was a Sikorsky S-76. The National Transportation Safety Board sent a “go team” of investigators to the site. The NTSB typically issues a preliminary report within about 10 days that will give a rough summary of what investigators have learned. A ruling on the cause can take a year or more. “They will look at man, machine and environment,” said Gary C. Robb, an aviation attorney in Kansas City who wrote a textbook on helicopter-crash litigation. “They will look at the pilot - was there any indication of fatigue, any indication of a training issue?They’ll scour his or her record,” Robb said. “They will look at this helicopter from stem to stern. They will take the engine to the NTSB metallurgical laboratory outside Washington, D.C., and examine it to see if there was something that malfunctioned in flight.” Investigators will also consider what role might have been played by weather, terrain, radio towers or bird strikes, he said. Robb said he has handled many cases involving Sikorsky S-76 crashes and regards the machine as having a good reputation. “It is generally regarded as a good helicopter with a good safety record,” he said, “but parts fail, parts break. Anything can happen.” \[twitter-follow screen\_name=‘basketballtalk’ show\_count='yes’ text\_color='00ccff’\]
