Itโ€™s been two years since the tragic passing of Kobe Bryant.

The NBA star, his daughter and seven others were aboard a helicopter on an overcast day traveling from Orange County, CA. to Thousand Oaks, CA.

They were traveling to the Mamba Sports Academy for his daughterโ€™s basketball game.

Kobe often used his helicopter to travel to games and bypass LA traffic.
