 They sat courtside while my jaw sat dropped. And that was the first time I met Kobe. Kobe, Gigi, and her teammates came into the locker room after the game. He congratulated us on the win, but said, and I'll never forget, don't shoot yourselves in the foot. He meant don't settle. The national championship wasn't far, and our goal was to win it all. I remember Gigi, excited and smiling in the locker room. I'd always watch a ton of film of her playing basketball. She had a fadeaway better than mine.
