Chants of “Kobe” rang out at the Pro Bowl match in Orlando, Florida, as NFL fans paid tribute to late NBA star Kobe Bryant on January 26.

The basketball great was killed along with eight others, including his 13-year-old daughter Gianna, in a helicopter crash at Calabasas in Los Angeles County on January 26.

Tributes also poured in online from celebrities, politicians, and sports starts. US President Donald Trump called Bryant a “basketball great” and said the crash was “terrible news.”

Bryant’s former teammate Pau Gasol said he was “beyond devastated,” while the NBA Player’s Association released a statement saying it was “stunned and devastated” by his death. Credit: king_phil_of_house_gainz via Storyful
