In his lifetime, Kobe Bryant was always ready to gush about his four daughters he shared with his wife Vanessa Bryant. On one such occasion, Kobe told late night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel that his daughter, Gianna, was poised to take up the mantel in basketball. “Do you think your daughter might want to play in the WNBA?” Jimmy inquired when the former basketball star was seated for a chat. Kobe, so assured, was adamant that his daughter was ready for the challenge.
