Kobe had once defined Mamba Mentality in the Amazon Book Review. He said, “Mamba mentality is all about focusing on the process and trusting in the hard work when it matters most. It’s the ultimate mantra for the competitive spirit.  It started just as a hashtag that came to me one day, and it’s grown into something athletes — and even non-athletes — embrace as a mindset.”

This is a sign of how athletes continue to hold Bryant in high regard.
