An auction that provokes reactions. Joe Bryant and his wife Pam put up for auction the replica of the NBA championship ring won by their son, Kobe, in 2000 with the Lakers. A gold ring with forty diamonds encrusted, given by Kobe to his father.
This sale is viewed negatively in America following the death of the iconic number 8 then 24 of the Lakers on January 26, 2020, which deeply affected the American people. As a reminder, Kobe Bryant died tragically after his helicopter crashed. His 13-year-old daughter, Gianna, also lost her life.
