So...I have news. I've reached an agreement on my next book: "Remember His Name: The Rise of Kobe Bryant." It's scheduled for Fall '21 & will tell Kobe's origin story: his family history/early life, his career at @LMHSAces, & his development as a person/basketball star. #Lakers

Bryant died along with eight others, including his teenage daughter Gianna, in a helicopter crash in Calabasas, California last January.
During his career in the NBA, Bryant was an 18-time NBA All-Star and a five-time NBA Champion.
He is also set to be posthumously inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame.
Bryant’s induction, along with those of fellow basketball stars Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett, will reportedly be postponed to 2021 due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
