Kobe Bryant’s monumental honor: Lakers set to raise statue in 2024
The upcoming tribute holds a significant chapter in the narrative of Kobe Bryant, the Hall of Famer who etched his name into the annals of basketball history. Following his tragic passing in January 2020, the Lakers have persistently sought poignant ways to honor his profound impact on the sport and the city he called home.
The impending statue will grace the esteemed Crypto.com Arena, where Bryant’s dazzling performances and unparalleled dedication captivated fans for two decades. Vanessa Bryant, Kobe’s wife, declared the statue’s debut at the iconic Star Plaza, an outside arena site that has memorialized various luminaries of the Lakers universe.
Vanessa expressed, “On behalf of the Lakers, my daughters and me, I am so honored that, right in the center of Los Angeles, in front of the place known as the house that Kobe built, we are going to unveil his statue so that his legacy can be celebrated forever.” The monumental event is slated to coincide with “Kobe Day” on August 24, in honor of Bryant’s jersey numbers, 8 and 24, with the Lakers.
Duncan Larcombe, a respected authority on royal matters, noted that the choice to unveil the statue at this juncture serves as a tangible olive branch between the Lakers’ legends. Bryant’s enduring impact and the chasm left by his absence have prompted this gesture of unity, particularly in light of the familial rifts that have come to the surface.

Larcombe expounded, “This is a clear sign that they are trying to make amends with the rest of the family.” The statue symbolizes more than an artistic commemoration-it speaks of a profound bond that transcends mere competition and rivalry, encapsulating the camaraderie that underpins the basketball brotherhood.
As the Lakers’ legend is enshrined with this tangible tribute, the countdown begins to an event that will unite fans, players, and the basketball community at large. With bated breath, the world awaits the unveiling of the Kobe Bryant statue, a testament to a man whose legacy lives on, both on the court and in the hearts of those who admired and loved him.
