Today, August 24th, is Kobe Bryant Day! A day to honor the basketball legend who used his life to inspire millions, help kids around the world achieve success and strive for greatness. August 24th, also written as 8/24, honors Kobe’s two numbers during his 20 seasons with the Los Angeles Lakers, 8 and 24. During his career with the Lakers, Kobe played a total of 20 seasons and averaged 25.0 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 4.7 assists in 1,346 regular-season games. He granted terminally ill children over 250 wishes through the Make A Wish Foundation and raised more than $81 million for research through Stand Up to Cancer; all while leading the Lakers to five NBA championships and becoming the fourth-leading scorer in NBA history. Today, and every day, we should remember Kobe, celebrate his life, and encourage the next generation to dream big…just like Kobe did. #KobeBryantDay #MambaForever
