Kobe Bryant's two youngest daughters are giving more credence to the old saying: 'The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.'

On Monday, Bianka, who's nearly five, and Capri, two, hit the hardwood to play some hoops with their dad's old teammate, Pau Gasol, at the Lakers facility in Los Angeles.   

And their mother, Vanessa Bryant, was there to capture all of the highlights as they showed off their skills, which they may very well have inherited from their late father and older sister Gianna.

Gasol, who considered Kobe to be among his best friends, has reportedly played the role of uncle to the Bryant girls, especially in the wake of the tragic helicopter crash that killed the Laker legend, daughter Gianna, and seven others on January 6, 2020. 

And that chemistry with the kids was on on full display as 7ft1in retired star switched between offense and defense.

The Spaniard first put on a clinic with his ball handling skills; dribbling in and out of his legs, while Bianka tried to steal the ball away from him, as Capri and Gasol's daughter Ellie looked on.
