Tracy McGrady on Kobe Bryant via The Jump: "This sounds crazy but, Kobe spoke this. He used to say, 'I wanna die young. I want to be immortalized. I want to have my career, be better than Michael Jordan and die young.' I used to think he was so crazy for saying that."

Bryant died at the age of 41.
While the 20-year veteran isn’t known to be better than Michael Jordan, he is certainly considered one of the greatest players in NBA history.
In addition to being the face of a franchise, Bryant represented the league for a very long time.
During his prolific career in the NBA, Bryant averaged 25.0 points, 5.2 boards and 4.7 assists per game. Furthermore, he captured five championships, two NBA Finals MVPs, two Olympic gold medals and much more.
Like McGrady, numerous people are recollecting their cherished memories with the fallen legend. While Bryant’s basketball resume was top notch, many will remember the loving father beyond the hardwood.
The NBA has decided to postpone Tuesday night’s contest between the Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers.
