Kobe Bryant's daughters Natalia and Bianka dance with Sabrina Ionescu in sweet video
No. 1 WNBA draft pick Sabrina Ionescu is keeping up her strong bond with the Bryant family.
The New York Liberty player shared a TikTok video on Friday with Kobe Bryant's oldest daughter Natalia doing a popular dance.
Kobe and Vanessa Bryant's 3-year-old Bianka also made an adorable surprise appearance at the end of the video.
Vanessa reposted the video on her Instagram account, captioning her post, "Another B.B. special! 🤩😃 @nataliabryant @sabrina_i #BiankaBella #thetiktokprincess (Bianka was humming the song the whole time) 😊"
Ionescu considered the late basketball legend her "mentor, idol, inspiration, and close friend."
"You took me under your wing and believed in me more than I believed in myself," Ionescu wrote in a message to Kobe Bryant after his tragic death. "I only have one choice. To live out your legacy."
She also helped coach Gianna and two other victims of the helicopter crash, Alyssa Altobelli and Payton Chester. The three girls were named honorary draft picks by the WNBA in April 2020.
"I was blessed to have been a part of your lives and to inspire you, but now you inspire me," Ionescu wrote in a message to Gianna, Alyssa and Payton on Instagram.
