Kobe Bryant’s former star Los Angeles Lakers teammate Pau Gasol turned 45 on Sunday. Kobe’s wife shared an amazing birthday wish for him in a photo with her daughter Natalia.

Pau and his wife Catherine are still good family friends with the Bryants and have been there for Vanessa and the kids since Kobe and Gianna were tragically killed in the helicopter crash of 2020. The kids all call Pau “uncle” and the family even took a ski trip together where Natalia and Vanessa matched in all-black ski fits. Vanessa sent them an awesome Kobe gift on Christmas and a pair of Gigi Kobe sneakers, while the Gasols made sure she felt the love on her and Kobe’s anniversary.
