The obstacles facing Kobe Bryant no longer consist of healing from a torn left Achilles’ tendon.
Lately, it involves something far more suffocating than navigating a double team.
Bryant’s mother, Pamela, and father, Joe, filed statements in federal court in Camden, NJ. on Monday suggesting the Lakers’ star has lied during his recent efforts to Pamela’s hope to give a New Jersey-based auction house more than 100 of his basketball memorabilia from both his high school and early portion of his Lakers career.
In a declaration filed in federal court in Camden Monday, Pamela insisted sworn statements from Kobe and his wife, Vanessa, “contained many false statements.” That included Kobe’s account of a May 2 phone conversation, in which she allegedly agreed he had never told her she could have his belongings.
Pamela Bryant claimed sworn statements by her son and daughter-in-law contained “many false statements.”
