She sang the Donny Hathaway classic For All We Know before the game began.

The Grammy-winning singer got chocked up briefly at the beginning of the performance.

Magic Johnson led an eight-second moment of silence to honor Kobe’s first Laker jersey number.

“We will never see another basketball player quite like Kobe.”

“He was passionate about being a great father, husband, filmmaker,” he said before the game.

Fans passionately chanted “Kobe!” multiple times throughout the emotional tribute.
