He lived and breathed basketball. Even after his retirement in 2016, Kobe didn&#8217;t stop pursuing new frontiers. He expertly transitioned from the sporting world into the world of business. But more about that later.<\/p>\n<h2>In the beginning\u2026<\/h2>\n<p>Let&#8217;s examine how it all started for Kobe Bryant. Kobe started playing basketball as early as 3 years old and this was largely due to the influence of his father, Joe Bryant. Joe Bryant himself had a remarkable career in the NBA and the European League.<\/p>\n<p>At age 6, there was no doubt in Kobe&#8217;s mind as to what he was going to do with the remainder of his life. He knew basketball was going to be a lifetime obsession of his.<\/p>\n<p>Owing to Joe Bryant&#8217;s basketball career, the Bryants has to move to Italy and despite the allure of soccer in Italy, Kobe maintained his fidelity to basketball.<\/p>\n<p>When it became clear that Joe Bryant&#8217;s basketball career was over, the Bryants moved back to Pennsylvania and Kobe&#8217;s dalliance with basketball began.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to his determination and talent, Kobe made it into the basketball varsity team of the Lower Merion High School in Ardmore, Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n<p>The Aces made him a starter even as a freshman; a strange occurrence when you think about it. Despite the team&#8217;s hard work, they didn&#8217;t fare well at the tournament during Kobe&#8217;s first season as a team player, and for Kobe, since all he wanted was to win, it was an anticlimactic season.<\/p>\n<p>Even at that, Kobe didn&#8217;t lose hope. In fact, Gregg Downer, Kobe&#8217;s High School Coach remembered him for his dedication to the team and the game.<\/p>\n<p>When Kobe announced that he was taking his talent to the NBA straight out of High School, enough people thought he needed to see a shrink.<\/p>\n<p>In a way, Kobe&#8217;s pronouncement felt like he was considering himself too good for college basketball and that skipping it was the right thing to do.<\/p>\n<p>Kobe won&#8217;t be the first person to make a giant leap to the pro league from high school but he may well be the first person to announce it with such boldness and candor.<\/p>\n<p>Kobe realized early enough that the best way to get noticed by scouts, coaches, and general managers was to be the best shooting guard on the roster.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of this realization, he started training as a guard and began improving his game.<\/p>\n<p>Kobe&#8217;s father struck a deal with the 76ers that allowed Kobe to try out with the pros. This deal did not just elevate Kobe&#8217;s game but it also served as a smart marketing ploy, as it allowed Kobe to put his skills on display, for the benefit of scouts and coaches.<\/p>\n<h2>The NBA Years<\/h2>\n<p>In 1996, the high school basketball wiz by the name of Kobe Bryant entered the NBA draft and he was picked 13tt by the Charlotte Hornets.<\/p>\n<p>But before Kobe could even wear a Hornets jersey, the unimaginable happened.<\/p>\n<p>The Los Angeles Lakers General Manager, Jerry West, made sure Kobe was shipped to Los Angeles in exchange for Vlad Divac.<\/p>\n<p>Although Kobe&#8217;s draft caused a stir in the sporting world, the signing of Shaquille O&#8217;Neal by the Lakers happened around the same time and one could say, from a public relations standpoint, that O&#8217;neal&#8217;s signing stole Kobe Bryant&#8217;s thunder.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the day, the signings laid down the groundwork for a modern-day basketball dynasty; one fraught with many controversies.<\/p>\n<p>Kobe&#8217;s first game as a pro wasn&#8217;t spectacular;0 points, 1 rebound, 1 steal, and 1 block in six minutes of playing time.<\/p>\n<p>His first career point came two days later against the New York Knicks. For someone who got so much hype for his draft into the NBA, Kobe had a slow start and that made him a target for criticisms, some of them acrimoniously.<\/p>\n<p>Kobe later got his ball touches and shooting style and in no time, he began to dominate games.<\/p>\n<h2>The controversial Bryant<\/h2>\n<p>Despite his great basketball skills, Kobe Bryant was no Mike Jordan, in the sense that his interpersonal skills were not so great.<\/p>\n<p>Kobe Bryant&#8217;s elevation to basketball greatness can be explained by highlighting his crazy work ethic and competitive nature.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, Kobe&#8217;s obsession with discipline and a strong work ethic made him butt head with Shaquille O&#8217;Neal on several occasions.<\/p>\n<p>O&#8217;neal had a weight problem he didn&#8217;t take seriously and Kobe knew what the implication will be on the overall team performance. Kobe wanted Shaq O&#8217;neal to be more disciplined but it was obvious they had different views on what discipline means. Kobe Bryant was known as the &#8220;Mamba Mentality&#8221; crooner. To him, Mamba Mentality is all about becoming the best version of oneself.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a mindset of continuous improvement and infinite curiosity.<\/p>\n<p>During the spell of his 20 colorful years in the NBA, the Mamba Mentality epitomized what Kobe Bryant was all about. Kobe&#8217;s career wasn&#8217;t without controversies. Kobe had an active feud with Shaquille O&#8217;Neal during his career. They fought a lot about many things. Things like team roles shot selection, and team leadership are part of the things they disagreed about.<\/p>\n<p>The feud between the duo started with something as mundane as jersey sales. Kobe&#8217;s popularity was on the rise and his jerseys were flying off the shelf and Shaq O&#8217;Neal accused Kobe of selfish playing and showboating. The disagreement between the duo intensified during the 2000-2001 season when Shaq O&#8217;Neal came to camp overweight. As always, Kobe was also concerned about the way that will affect team performance and he felt Shaq&#8217;s weight problem was a sign of irresponsibility.<\/p>\n<p>The 2003-2004 was a trying season for the Lakers; Kobe was accused of Rape during the summer and his future seemed uncertain due to legal challenges.<\/p>\n<p>During this trying period for Kobe, he felt his team couldn&#8217;t care less. There were outbursts during press conferences and one of Kobe&#8217;s teammates accused him of not showing interest in having a relationship with his team outside the court.<\/p>\n<h2>Wrapping Up<\/h2>\n<p>When Kobe ended his NBA Career in 2016, he did it in style. His 60 points outburst in his last game with the Utah Jazz was a remarkable way of ending a colorful basketball career.<\/p>\n<p>At the Staples Center, he thanked his fans, teammates, and other supporters for contributing to a fulfilling career. He ended his speech with the phrase &#8220;Mamba Out&#8217; and in no time, &#8216;Mamba Out&#8217; T-shirts were being sold on his official website.<\/p>\n<p>In a sense that was Kobe&#8217;s segue into the world of business. This is not to say he didn&#8217;t know anything about the business world before retiring but he took an active stake in business upon his retirement.<\/p>\n<p>Kobe teamed up with Jeff Stable to found Bryant Stable, a venture capital firm with a $100 million fund. The firm focused on data companies, tech startups, to mention a few.<\/p>\n<p>Kobe also invested $6 million in BodyArmor and that singular investment returned a windfall of $200 million. Kobe Bryant successfully transitioned from an autograph-signing athlete to an empire-building businessman.<\/p>\n<p>One can only imagine what would have happened if he had lived to be 100.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Introduction The world lost a lot of good people in 2020, a sizable number were lost to the coronavirus pandemic but the world lost a particular sports icon owing to a helicopter crash tragedy on the 26th of January, 2020.
