The public memorial — dubbed “A Celebration of Life for Kobe and Gianna Bryant” — is being held in the arena where Bryant wowed fans for nearly two decades while playing for the Los Angeles Lakers. Fellow Laker legend Magic Johnson was among those attending the memorial, which is taking place just hours after the Lakers 114-112 win over the Boston Celtics at Staples Center on Sunday.

Many of the fans lucky enough to nab one of the much-sought-after 20,000 tickets for the memorial wore the gold and purple colours of the Lakers as they headed for the two-and-a-half-hour ceremony scheduled to start at 10 am amid tight security.
