The late NBA great Kobe Bryant has left behind a legacy that will inspire generations to come. Although Kobe played basketball only, the Lakers legend had an impact on the entire sporting world. And now that, unfortunately, he is not in the earthly world anymore, whenever fans get a chance to see anything related to Kobe, they rarely miss any chances. Recently, NBA fans got a glimpse of an upcoming signature line under his name. Safe to say, the anticipation is through the roof for it.

A superstar of his stature holds a strong position in the market, and Kobe’s dominance is far from over. The responsibility to maintain and protect his and Gigi’s legacy is on his wife Vanessa and she is doing a phenomenal job at it. Going as far as calling out a multi-billion dollar company for making mistakes.

Vanessa Bryant now takes care of everything related to Kobe and Gigi. From their legacy to the business side of things, she manages everything. About a year ago, when the footwear giant Nike leaked the Mambacita shoes, she openly condemned the company. The shoes were designed by Vanessa with the intention of honoring Gigi’s legacy. She complained that the release of those shoes was unauthorized and she demanded that the company give her an explanation for the same. She said that “I do not know how someone else has their hands on shoes I designed in honor of my daughter.”
