REMEMBERING KOBE BRYANT Players, Coaches, and Broadcasters Recall the Greatest Basketball Player of His Generation

Sports journalist Sean Deveney originally wrote this work on basketball great Kobe Bryant in 2016. An added chapter is a tribute completed after Bryant's tragic death. Narrator Leon Nixon uses a serious tone that is clear and understandable throughout. Among the figures who discuss competing against Bryant are Stephen Curry, Charles Barkley, Grant Hill, and Reggie Miller. With a spot-on foreword by Lakers player and, later, general manager Jerry West, this audiobook includes a statistical pdf from the players whose points of view are reflected in the text. The biographical portrait is thorough and absorbing. Nixon has a deep pitch and a tone of gravitas as he speaks at a steady pace. Sports fans and many others will likely be entertained and informed.
