Kobe - Athlete and Investor - Pursued Perfection

Scott Soshnick, Eben Novy-Williams and Michael Barr discuss a host of issues related to the business of sports, including the basketball and business legacy left by former Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant, who was killed in a helicopter crash over the weekend. Bryant, much like the late NBA Commissioner David Stern, was myopic on his relentless pursuit of perfection. His death drew an outpouring of support from world leaders, athletes and entertainers. Bryant also built an investment platform, which had him on the road to becoming a billionaire. Also discussed is the Premier Golf League, which begins play in 2022.Hosts: Scott Soshnick, Eben Novy-Williams and Michael BarrProducer: Charles VollmerTo contact the reporters on this story:Scott Soshnick in New York at [email protected];Eben Novy-Williams in New York at [email protected];Michael Barr in New York at [email protected] contact the editor responsible for this story:Scott Soshnick at [email protected] omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
