May 1 marks Gianna “Gigi” Bryant‘s heavenly birthday, and the late athlete—nicknamed “Mambacita” in honor of her father, Kobe Bryant—would have been 17 this year.
In honor of Gigi’s would-be 17th birthday, Vanessa Bryant lovingly paid tribute to her second-born daughter on social media.
Additionally, sneakerheads got the opportunity to get their hands on a Gigi-themed shoe to help support the Mamba & Mambacita Sports Foundation.
