Amongst all things happening in the world today, the name P Diddy is what hits the top of any news medium. Ever since the rapper was arrested and placed in custody, a lot of previously hidden news and information has come out on social media. His links to several prominent people have been thrown around on social media, including a certain NBA great Kobe Bryant.
The Los Angeles Lakers great was not a party junkie – always dedicated to the game of basketball and gave all his efforts towards his goal of winning NBA titles. But after he retired, his focus shifted to his family. He also jettisoned to several events as he started to grow his life outside of basketball. One of his trips was to a party hosted by P Diddy.
The rapper had posted a picture of Kobe Bryant wearing a suit and dancing away with a glass in his hands. The occasion was Diddy’s 50th birthday celebrations. With his birthday being in November, it places it a little more than a month before the Lakers legend tragically passed away in a helicopter crash.

Diddy had scrubbed his social media after accusations of domestic violence filled his world recently. But it seems fans kept a screenshot of this post. Now this post has gone viral and has garnered more than 28 million views. Fans would not want anything to tarnish Kobe Bryant’s legacy, but there is proof that the legend was once associated with the rapper.
P Diddy’s connections with LeBron James come under the microscope
This makes it only one instance of the late great Kobe Bryant associating with P Diddy. LeBron James, the NBA superstar, has partied several times with Diddy. The all-time leading scorer openly expressed his friendship with the now-incarcerated rapper. But since his arrest, James has come under the public microscope.
Fans pointed out that the 4-time NBA champion’s association with P Diddy will be detrimental to his legacy. Other sporting superstars may have publicly distanced themselves away from the Grammy Award-winning artist. But LeBron James has not revealed his stance yet. This has led many fans to pull up videos and photos of the superstar partying with the rapper.
Some have called the Los Angeles Lakers superstar out as they feel he has often spoken against other topics that have had a negative impact on society. So, he should do the same this time, considering what they accuse P Diddy of.
