“Five years after his passing, we are honored to share the story of Kobe Bryant—arguably one of the greatest and most competitive professional athletes of all time,” said Eric Johnson, Executive Producer for CNN Original Series

During this episode, we explore the complexities of Kobe's character, his impact on sports and culture, and the nuances of his relationships with the Executive Producer, Eric Johnson.

The docu-series further delves into Kobe's life, providing insights into his early years, his rise in the NBA, his challenges, and the global mourning following his tragic death.

Johnson emphasizes the importance of understanding Kobe as a multifaceted individual--a sports icon and a person with personal struggles and triumphs.

Although for many, Kobe's passing still resonates as deeply as it did five years ago, Cari shares this sentiment, and this episode is a homage to his legacy.
