My brother and I don’t have a lot in common. He loves basketball and I’ve never watched it. However, I did watch this Tubi Original and I was pretty amazed by the story in it. I never realize that Kobe Bryant’s father played, that he grew up in Italy or that he had a lifelong friendship with WNBA player Tamika Jennings, that he supported women in basketball so much or that he was so devoted of a father.
Directed by Victoria Duley and Sia Savvy, this Tubi documentary would probably be elementary for someone who knew basketball better than I do, but it held me for an hour and a half and it took me through the entire story of Kobe’s life — the good and bad — and I grew to admire what he did in his life, even when he failed.
You can watch this on Tubi.
