Basketball star Kobe Bryant has died in a helicopter crash in California, alongside his 13-year-old daughter.
"Because there is no #24 without #2," she said. "We hope to empower young athletes in a world they left us all to help shape."
The Lakers All-Star bares his new ink in honor of his friend shortly before the game against the Portland Trail Blazers, the first Lakers game since Bryant's death.

"More than anything, they need our attention and respect."
