His daughter Gianna Maria was also on the flight, TMZ reports.
This is the worst celebrity news I've encountered in my life.

Woj just said another player and parent were on the helicopter too. Getting worse.
I don't think that means an NBA player. We knew there were five on board. I think Woj means that it was a teammate of Kobe's daughter and that teammate's parent.
What do you mean another player and parent?
Edit: Ah, the Captain clarified at the same time I posted.
People, please show links or details about what you are posting. Be clear. Vague statements are hard to follow.
Sorry to hear of his passing.

I'm just watching all of these people on espn in tears. Former pro Jay Williams was in shambles, Rachel Nichols can hardly hold it together and Stephen A. Smith is holding back tears. There was footage earlier of Tyson Chandler and Austin Rivers crying on the bench. God...his poor wife and daughters, and all of the other people related to those onboard the crash.
Just devestating.
