We all wake up wishing it hadn’t happened, we still can’t believe it Kobe Bryant he advanced us on the path and is no longer with us. A year after the tragic death, the gods of the NBA offered that the latest tweet from the Los Angeles Lakers legend before he died outside for no one else and no one less than Lebron James.
It all happened on January 25, 2020 when LeBron moved to Kobe at the all-time high scoring table. With the same sweater he saw consecrated to Bryant, James hit 33,644 points, surpassed Kobe’s 33,643 and finished as the third-highest scorer in NBA history.
Bryant, like a gentleman, congratulated Lebron James for overcoming it, but what he never imagined is that these words he posted on his Twitter account would be Kobe’s last tweet before he died. So was the congratulation of a legend for the player who would receive his legacy to the Lakers.
“Keep pushing the game @KingJames (LeBron’s Twitter account). Much respect to my brother # 33644,” Kobe Bryant wrote.
Kobe Bryant’s last Twitter post before he died was by Lebron James
With more than 2.6 million likes, 521,000 retweets and 82,000 tweets quoted, Kobe Bryant’s last message on Twitter before he died was, is and will remain an indelible memory for Lebron James and all Los Angeles Lakers fans.
Continuing to advance the game @KingJames. Much respect to my brother # 33644
