Drake shows off Black Mamba collection to mark Kobe Bryant Day

Canadian rapper Drake has paid tribute to the late Kobe Bryant by showing off his huge Black Mamba collection.

The award-winning rapper is a huge fan of Kobe and has the deceased NBA star’s No.8 and No.24 displayed on the walls.

As many basketball fans marked Kobe Bryant Day on Sunday, August 24, 2020, Drake gave his fans a tour of his Kobe shoe collection.

The wildly expensive Black Mamba collection includes his Kobe 5 Preludes, which are estimated to be worth around $1,200 on resale sites.

Drake also has multiple versions of the Kobe 8s, the Venice Beach, Python and the WTKs, which is valued at more than $1,000 a pair.

Bryant died alongside his daughter Gianna in January, following a helicopter crash which also claimed the lives of eight others. 

The NBA star would have turned 42 years last Sunday.
