Kobe Bryant immortalized ahead of the Los Angeles 2028 Games

As expected, Kobe Bryant will be present at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics as the city has already created a mural with the logo. The design has been placed near the Crypto.com Arena, at the Figueroa hotel, showing the former Los Angeles Lakers star on both sides of the facade.

Another banner in the middle features the LA 2028 Olympic logo, the words "No Time To Lose," and a Nike swoosh.

Kobe would have turned 46 years old this past Friday, August 24, which has been named by the city as "Kobe Bryant Day" or "Mamba Day," paying homage to his 24-8 legacy with the Los Angeles team.

Kobe Bryant won Olympic gold medals in 2008 and 2012 and played a key role in the recovery of the U.S. men's basketball program after the bronze medal at the 2004 Games. He was also part of the Los Angeles bid that ultimately secured the 2028 Games.

In 2017, Bryant delivered the final words during Los Angeles' presentation to the IOC. "To have the Olympic Games here and have so many different cultures represented would be a beautiful story to tell," were Bryant's closing words in the video.
