So they changed the name of his Mamba Academy to The Sports Academy. They say it was out of respect for Kobe, but I look at it the complete opposite way
I guess that it’s their way of saying “it’s over”
Kobe did them a solid by partnering with the academy when things were in a shaky place with the business but now that their big fish is gone, it’s time for things to move in another direction.
But if you read their “reason” for changing the name, it’s a lot of babble that kinda doesn’t make a lot of sense.
To be real, with no Kobe, the shyt just doesn’t pop off the way it used to.
I will say, if y’all want some Mambe gear, literally get it now because the Merck section looks like they won’t be selling it by the end of month. I copped 2 shirts (which i have now) and might get a jacket because there’s zero chance they will sell it again.
