The pair were frequently spotted at NBA games together, laughing and discussing plays. On December 29th, the two shared one last coutrside experience watching the Lakers beat the Mavericks. Kobe himself expressed in an interview with All the Smoke podcast just how Gianna’s love for the game reignited his spark for basketball.

Before Gigi got into basketball I hardly watched it, but now that’s she’s into basketball, we watch every night. We just had so much fun because it was the first time I was seeing the game through her eyes. It wasn’t me sitting there, you know, as an athlete or a player or something like that, and you know it’s like about me, and I don’t like that. It was her, she was having such a good time.
