The legacy of Kobe Bryant is extraordinary. An NBA legend and a pioneer in the film industry will be visible to us in the past. He was one of the pioneers in bringing basketball into the limelight of Hollywood. In 2017, he won an Oscar, and it was finally recognized in Hollywood.
Kobe’s handprints and footprints were recently inscribed at a ceremony held at the Chinese Theatre. The first athlete to receive this recognition is he. He was supposed to take the award, however, due to his absence, Natalia Diamante Bryant was called.

She expressed her father’s influence and did him credit. As the MVP of girl parents, not just to the globe but to her universe.

I came to know and love him as my dad, even if most others only knew him as a basketball player or a storyteller.
Natalia began by mentioning Bryant in her remarks. And let me tell you, to put it mildly, he is the MVP of girl parents, she continued.
Being his daughter is one of the biggest joys of my life, and I hope to keep emulating and valuing the numerous things he has taught me, Bryant continued.
Natalia, a USC student majoring in cinema, talked about her father’s influence and how she grew up watching cult favorites like Star Wars, The Goonies, and Harry Potter. He is the reason I’m pursuing cinema in college, she claimed. And it is because of him that the movie has motivated me to make experiences like ours and encouraged others to bring more fathers and daughters together like us.

She mentioned how her father was the first athlete to receive an Oscar.

My dad, Kobe Bryant, is the first athlete to have their hand and footprints exhibited here, which is only fitting. This day serves as a reminder of his influence on the city he cared for and loved so much. As I’ve aged, I’ve continued to notice his influence on people around him and the inspiration he provided to so many. You’re a legend, an icon, a storyteller, and most importantly, the ideal girl dad that any little girl could hope for.
