NBA Twitter Stands Up And Defends Kobe Bryant’s Wife Vanessa Bryant Against Ruthless Reporting By TMZ And Others
January 2020 was a brutal month for all of us, but especially for Vanessa Bryant. On the morning of the 26th, her husband, NBA legend Kobe Bryant, was on his way to her daughter’s basketball game in a helicopter when she crashed. This resulted in Kobe and all 13 passengers, including his daughter Gianna, losing their lives.
Since then, Vanessa Bryant’s life has turned upside down. She lost not only her husband, but also her daughter. As she dealt with losing her, she was also busy fighting for her husband’s legacy and privacy.
Not too long ago, he finally won his case against the Los Angeles County Sheriff and Fire Department for sharing photos of the crash site. Bryant was awarded $16 million in compensation for the same. Recently, she was seen at Bad Bunny’s concert, which generated some unfortunate comments.

NBA Twitter defends Vanessa Bryant
Vanessa Bryant was recently invited by Bad Bunny to his concert in Los Angeles. During the concert, she paid tribute to Los Angeles legend Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna Bryant. It was a wonderful gesture, until TMZ decided to stick their nose in them and make it look bad.

However, NBA Twitter supported Vanessa and made sure she was defended.
The choice of words is unpleasant.
@TMZ and the friends I was with were Sydney Leroux and Candace Parker.
Stop trying to make Vanessa Bryant feel guilty for having fun https://t.

There’s no way NBA Twitter would allow a post to smear its beloved figure in this way. It’s great to see them stand up for her in the middle of this shit.
