On the Fourth of July, she shared Kobe’s Team USA feat about being 36-0 when he played with them.

Part of those 36 wins ia the two Olympic gold medals in 2008 Beijing and 2012 London where he famously ran over teammate Pau Gasol on the way to winning over Spain with clutch shots.
Kobe was one-of-a-kind. It’s great to see Vanessa bringing these memories and stats back.
Happy Fourth to the Bryants and everyone out there.
