In this clip, The Game recounts his unique friendship with the late NBA superstar Kobe Bryant. The Game shared that Kobe was supportive of his music career from the beginning, often playing his albums during workouts. Bryant's influence was so significant on The Game that the rapper even got the number eight tattooed over his eye in honor of Kobe after his tragic death. The Game recollected the difficulty he had believing the news of Bryant's passing, pulling over his car to check for news updates, and his emotional reaction upon confirmation. Furthermore, fellow NBA player, Joe Smith, added that Bryant’s hunger for the game was unparalleled, reflected in his intense approach to practice and exceptional understanding of the game.
