Klay Thompson‘s latest tribute to Kobe Bryant and Gianna Bryant may deserve an award of its own.

During the 2022 ESPYS on July 20, the Golden State Warriors player received the title of Best Comeback Athlete. In the middle of his acceptance speech, the NBA champion looked back on the places and people who inspired him to dream big. 

“The best memories I have growing up down here in Southern California are going to Staples with my father,” he told the crowd inside the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. “I would go to every game early just to watch Kobe do his thing.”

The memories propelled Klay to express his gratitude to the Bryant family for all they have done on and off the court. “I don’t know if Vanessa is out there watching,” the athlete continued, “but to Vanessa and her three beautiful girls, we think of Kobe and Gigi every day and I read Mamba Mentality every day during rehab and those are the best memories of my life watching him play.”

“He inspired me to be the athlete that I am today,” Klay added. “Thank you Kobe. Thank you Gigi.”

Chris Pratt Talks Funniest Super Mario Bros. Movie Moments

Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger‘s TV viewing habits are a little different as parents.

In an exclusive interview with E! News, Chris joked that the couple’s so-called favorite series these days is a baby monitor that watches over their daughters Lyla Maria, 2, and Eloise Christina, 10 months.

“It’s this new show where you just hope and pray that they stay asleep all night,” quipped the Jurassic World star, who is also dad to 10-year-old son Jack with ex Anna Faris. “It’s been really great. Drama, some comedy.”

While Chris and Katherine are also fans of Yellowstone and Ozark, the actor noted, “It’s been hard for us to find the time to watch anything.”

After all, bedtime can be quite the production. As the 43-year-old explained, the biggest challenge is to put his children to sleep and successfully sneak out of the room without waking them.

“That’s like an obstacle course,” Chris remarked. “And I have one ankle…that cracks every third step. I got a loud ankle, and so I have to hobble out on one leg or else I wake the baby up.”

“We got as close as we could,” Peter said on the pod, hosted by Waverly Place alums Jennifer Stone and David DeLuise. “It was pretty much right there.”

While his show wasn’t able to peel back the layers of Alex and Stevie’s relationship, Peter acknowledged that the network has made more progressive strides in recent years.

“Disney Channel has had [queer] characters,” he noted. “They did it. At that time, it wasn’t a thing.”

In the 2016 series finale of the animated comedy Gravity Falls, Sheriff Blubs (Kevin Michael Richardson) and Deputy Durland (Keith Ferguson) confirmed they were in a relationship.

Additionally, shows like Star Wars Resistance, The Owl House and The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder have featured LGBTQ+ representation on Disney Channel since Wizards of Waverly Place left the airwaves.
