Table tennis star Sun Yingsha found inspiration in Kobe Bryant's autobiography, 'The Mamba Mentality,' during training for the World Championships. She related to Bryant's dedication to solitary training and ability to block out distractions, drawing parallels to her own rigorous routine.
In an exclusive interview with TimesofIndia.com, NBA legend DeMarcus Cousins reflected on redefining the role of big men in basketball. Cousins discussed overcoming serious injuries, learning the harsh business side of the NBA, and drawing inspiration from Kobe Bryant. He also urged young Indian players to believe in themselves, saying confidence comes from “the work that you put in”.
From teammates and opponents to coaches, officials and staff, those who were there remember how Bryant's last game became something no one expected -- and no one will forget.
