One year on from the unspeakable tragedy that robbed us of the legend that was Kobe Bryant, NBA players around the league have paused to remember the all-time great.
Here’s what they had to say:

I'll always wish I had one more conversation with Kobe. For all his greatness and everything he accomplished, his best days were still to come. My thoughts are with the family and friends of Kobe, Gianna, and all the others who were taken from us far too soon a year ago today. pic.twitter.com/SrZunsSqo1
