To honor our Team Mamba family, the Mamba Sports Foundation has set up the MambaOnThree Fund to help support the other families affected by this tragedy. We ask that you grant us the respect and privacy we will need to navigate this new reality. Thank you for sharing your joy, your grief and your support with us. I just wish I could hug them, kiss them and bless them. Our love for them is endless - and that’s to say, immeasurable. But we wake up each day, trying to keep pushing because Kobe, and our baby girl, Gigi, are shining on us to light the way. I’m not sure what our lives hold beyond today, and it’s impossible to imagine life without them. They were our beautiful blessings taken from us too soon. We were so incredibly blessed to have them in our lives. I take comfort in knowing that Kobe and Gigi both knew that they were so deeply loved. There aren’t enough words to describe our pain right now. We are also devastated for the families who lost their loved ones on Sunday, and we share in their grief intimately.

We are completely devastated by the sudden loss of my adoring husband, Kobe - the amazing father of our children and my beautiful, sweet Gianna - a loving, thoughtful, and wonderful daughter, and amazing sister to Natalia, Bianka, and Capri. My girls and I want to thank the millions of people who’ve shown support and love during this horrific time. Account icon An icon in the shape of a person's head and shoulders.
