Las reacciones del mundo del baloncesto después de los primeras noticias acerca de la muerte de Kobe Bryant iban desde la completa incredulidad hasta la absoluta tristeza.
“Demasiado pronto, el baloncesto mundial perdió a uno de los grandes jugadores y embajadores, Kobe Bryant, que tocó la vida de cualquiera que amara nuestro deporte”, dijo el CEO de EuroLeague, Jordi Bertomeu, en un comunicado oficial de la organización.
Estas son algunas reacciones de los representantes europeos de baloncesto y de los clubes de la Euroliga:
Thank you, Kobe. Rest In Peace. pic.twitter.com/XbCAen5xrF

"Keep working hard and you'll get there."
Some of the last words you said to me after I met you. I’ll live the rest of my life by those words to honor you, for what you’ve done for me.
RIP Kobe and GiGi
