Report: Memorial for Bryant, crash victims set for Feb. 24

Kobe Bryant, his daughter and seven others killed in a helicopter crash last month will be remembered Feb. 24 in a public service at Staples Center, multiple media outlets reported Thursday. The date was selected with input from Bryant's widow, Vanessa, and officials from the Los Angeles Lakers and their home venue, Staples Center, the Los Angeles Times reported. While the date -- 2/24 -- conveniently falls between two Lakers' home games, it still could have been chosen symbolically.
