During his two decade long career, Kobe averaged a massive 25 points. As a guard-forward, he successfully earned the title of being one of the league’s greatest ever stars.

After Kobe sadly passed away, perhaps Pau considered it an obligation to do his duty as a friend. He has hung out multiple times with Vanessa and the family, and vice versa. The latest of these outings was at the Lakers‘ arena, where all of them united for some basketball. In a series of posts, Vanessa added images of all of them hanging out together.

In the first post, she shared a picture of the girls with a basketball. She captioned it, “Kobe’s Principessas.” Next, Pau Gasol joined the young ones for a game of basketball. He was dribbling as the girls enjoyed his company. Vanessa captioned it, “Uncle Pau Gasol and Uncle P. Lakers.” It was a touching set of images which left fans thinking about the great man himself.

It is lovely to see these touching images of the 41-year-old retired legend with Kobe’s family. After all, the duo influenced an entire generation of basketball stars. The Lakers were an indomitable force with Kobe, and his everlasting memories will be cherished forever!
