Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics shared a sensitive tribute to his idol Kobe Bryant, who died in a tragic helicopter crash yesterday.

Tatum also shared a picture with him as a young kid with Kobe with the following text:

“Heart broken. My Hero. My Idol. The reason I started to play this game, the reason I fell in love with this game. Growing up wanting to be just like you, to you becoming a mentor, beyond thankful for everything you’ve done for me. “I didn’t have a plan B I put all my eggs in one basket and I knew I was going to make it happen” hearing you say that stuck with me everyday of my life. You inspired me and I am forever grateful more than you know! Love you Bean 🙏🏽❤️! Sad, sad, sad day RIP Kobe and Gianna! Praying for the family!”
