The sports world continues to mourn the loss of retired NBA superstar Kobe Bryant, who was tragically killed in a helicopter accident on Sunday.

The 41-year-old Bryant, his 13-year-old daughter Gianna, and seven others died on their way to Mamba Sports Academy for a basketball game. The outpouring of love and support across the NHL for the basketball legend was immense.

The tributes continued on Saturday, the Columbus Blue Jackets sent just two players out to the blue line for their pregame ceremony: defenseman Zach Werenski, who wears No. 8 and forward Nathan Gerbe who wears No. 24.

On Monday, country music singer Karen Lee Batten performed "The Star-Spangled Banner" and "O Canada" while wearing a purple No. 24 jersey, which the Los Angeles Lakers retired in 2017 along with Bryant's original No. 8, before the Vancouver Canucks hosted the St. Louis Blues at Rogers Arena.

The Los Angeles Kings, who share Staples Center with Bryant's Lakers, put together a stirring tribute in their first home game after the tragedy on Wednesday. That same night Alex Ovechkin took the ice in a jersey with No. 24 on the back instead of his usual No. 8.

On Friday, Anaheim Ducks goalie John Gibson wore a beautiful custom-made mask as tribute to Bryant.
