Vanessa Bryant, the widow of the late great Kobe, defended the pose he chose for the statue and confirmed that the Los Angeles Lakers will honor him with two more sculptures outside of Crypto Arena.

The statue unveiling saw a ton of Kobe’s former teammates attend, including Pau Gasol, Lamar Odom, Robert Horry, Metta World Peace, Gary Payton, Jordan Farmar, Larry Nance Jr., and more.

Vanessa did not mince her words when addressing anybody who does not like the pose Kobe chose for his statue, which is him simply pointing to the sky.

“For the record, Kobe picked the pose you’re about to see. So if anybody has any issue with it, tough shit,” Vanessa said.

Two more statues for Kobe Bryant

The statue displays Kobe wearing his original No. 8 jersey, but Vanessa confirmed that No. 24 will be included in the next installment outside Crypto Arena.

There will also be a third statue of Kobe, this one featuring his daughter Gianna, who tragically died in the helicopter crash with him at the age of 13.

Many people attended the first statue unveiling, including Magic Johnson and Rob Pelinka, whose beef is seemingly still ongoing.

The Suns defeated the Warriors 130-119.
The real reason for Andrew Wiggins’ absence has been revealed ahead of the player’s return to the court.

The Canadian star has been away from the Golden State Warriors since mid-February and has been the subject of much speculation these last few weeks,

with one rumor even noting he was too devastated to play after finding out his partner had cheated on him with his best friend while also discovering he wasn’t the biological father of their kids.

Wiggins’ girlfriend has since denied these accusations outright, while they’ve also been debunked from certain angles.

With the player now expected to fashion a return this week, NBA insider Shams Charania has revealed that Wiggins took a leave of absence to be close to his father, who has been battling a serious medical issue.

Golden State’s Andrew Wiggins plans to attend Warriors-Thunder on Tuesday. The reason for Wiggins’ leave of absence since mid-February is that his father, Mitchell Wiggins, has been dealing with a serious medical situation, sources close to the situation say. 🙏🏽

Wiggins’ Warriors teammate Draymond Green had also lashed out at the rumors in the wake of their emergence.

“Sometimes people disgust me,” he said on his podcast. “You don’t know what someone is dealing with, and then you make them deal with THAT?… Stop it, it’s disgusting.”

It is an unfortunate situation for the player, who has had to deal with his father’s condition while also fielding embarrassing rumors concerning his family.

We look forward to seeing him back on the court soon and are hoping his dad is a lot better.

The Warriors have missed Wiggins these last few weeks and will be happy to have him back as they approach the playoffs. They should be keen on avoiding a play-in situation in the Western Conference as they’re only .5 games ahead of the Los Angeles Lakers in sixth place.

One woman was viewed arguing with a man, and it turns out that she just found her boyfriend at the game with another woman. That is according to the caption on the video.

You can also see a father covering the eyes of his child as this argument continues. One security guard had to calm things down before it could really get out of hand.

Despite falling behind by as many as 18 points, the Philadelphia 76ers rallied for a 133-130 victory against the Bucks on Saturday night, snapping Milwaukee’s 16-game winning streak.

James Harden scored 38 points and dished out 10 assists while Joel Embiid added 31 points and also collected 10 assists. That feat would make them the first pair of teammates with 30 points and 10 assists in the same game since 1979.

The Bucks were handed their first loss since Jan 21st.
