Vanessa Bryant Shares Photos Of Latest Gift From Pau Gasol

Vanessa Bryant and Pau Gasol have a truly special relationship.

Kobe Bryant and Gasol obviously played together and enjoyed immense on-the-court success with the Los Angeles Lakers. The latter has spoken about his time with the former endlessly.

Over the years Gasol has shared everything ranging from the first time he ever saw Kobe cry to the two sides of Kobe that he saw to why he and Kobe had so much chemistry.

After Kobe and his daughter Gianna’s untimely passing, Gasol was there with his family to support Vanessa and the Bryant family in every way possible.

Gasol has gone on vacation with them, sends Vanessa Valentine’s Day gifts and been a general pillar of strength and legitimate friendship.

This past week, on May 1, Gianna’s birthday came. In honor of it, Gasol sent this gift to Vanessa:

Fans were moved to see how much Gasol cares about Vanessa and the rest of the Bryant family.

He is the sort of friend everyone should aspire to have. And while some have made the case that he is too close to Vanessa, it is hard to see how any rational-minded person would buy into that.

The Bryant family and Gasol family are extremely close, and most Lakers fans wouldn’t want it any other way.
