Bryant has been on the minds of Lakers players as they prepare to finish the season inside the NBA’s bubble in Orlando. When Anthony Davis arrived in Orlando, he was wearing a shirt with Kobe and Bryant’s daughter Gianna on the front.

Pau Gasol, who was one of Kobe’s closest friends after they played together, recently visited with the Bryant family and spent time with Kobe and his wife Vanessa’s daughters. Expect to see plenty of tributes to Kobe in Orlando if the Lakers make a deep run.
