Wilson addressed the late sports star by saying that ‘Your family means a lot to family. We love you all. For this game, we had to bring the Mamba mentality.’
He went on to share that Kobe was on his mind during Sunday’s game.
As fans know, Wilson, his wife Ciara and Kobe and his wife Vanessa were really close friends.
Russell continued by saying that ‘This is what I found out in 2020: Life’s so much bigger than just this game. It comes down to our family, to our loved ones, comes down to grace, comes down to how we treat and how we love one another. And the one thing that I have found out and really understood in 2020 is, nothing is promised. The good thing is, there’s hope. Hope lies in god, it lies in our faith, it lies in a new day.’
