Vanessa Bryant, wife of NBA player and West team member, Kobe Bryant, daughters Gianna Maria-Onore Bryant and Natalia Diamante Bryant pose before the NBA All-Star basketball game Sunday, Feb. 17, 2013, in Houston.  Kobe and his  teammates triumphed over the East coast with a 143-138 win.

Prior to Sunday’s event, Kobe Bryant enjoyed a bit of father-daughter  with his elldest daughter, Natalia.  The NBA star was excited to have his daughter along for the ride as he told the press, “It’s beyond special. I was just excited that she actually wanted to come to work with me today.”

Although excited to take part in All-Star games that allow him to show off his skills, Kobe has been giving a bit of thought to retirement. “For me, it’s pretty simple. If I just want to walk away, I’ll just walk away. It’s just something you feel and decide,” said the b-ball player.

Kobe and wife Vanessa have two kids-Natalia and Gianna-together.
