Just when I thought I was done crying. I just know LeBron is going through it.
Kobe Bryant's friends and fans are continuing to mourn the late NBA star, who passed away in a helicopter crash on Sunday.While a long list of athletes and celebrities immediately shared public tributes to Bryant, fellow basketball legend LeBron James stayed silent for several days.
"I'm not ready, but here I go," he finally wrote today on Instagram, explaining why he understandably hasn't yet posted about his close friend and teammate."Man I keep sitting here trying to write something for this post but every time I try I begin crying again just thinking of you, niece Gigi and the friendship/bond/brotherhood we had!"
LeBron James on Instagram: “I’m Not Ready but here I go. Man I sitting here trying to write something for this post but every time I try I begin crying again just…” James revealed that he spoke to Bryant on the phone hours before his death."I literally just heard your voice Sunday morning… Didn't think for one bit in a million years that would be the last conversation we'd have."
He continued,"I promise you I'll continue your legacy man… it's my responsibility to put this shit on my back and keep it going!! Please give me the strength from the heavens above and watch over me! I got US here!"
