Flau'jae Johnson talks about Kobe Bryant's impact on her podcast

Flau'jae Johnson welcomed billionaire Alexis Ohanian, co-founder of Reddit and tennis legend Serena Williams' husband, to her podcast "Best of Both Worlds." During the episode, Ohanian discussed his hobbies and shared his investment plans.

Johnson reflected on the legacy of the late Kobe Bryant and talked about how he inspired an entire generation of hoopers.

"I always talk about Kobe. But it's really like that. Kobe would try to annihilate his defenders. Cmon, his own teammates," Johnson said.
"I think it's so important to have that mentality but also be able to separate, not crossing the line but still I know like I'm gonna come here, I'm gonna demoralize you after I'ma build you right up. Cause we're all going for a common goal and I think that's the most important part about sports that even young kids got to understand."

The Savannah, Georgia native also shared that whenever she goes through the handshake line, she always tells opponent team players, "Good job, good job," regardless of how well they performed.

She mentioned that even if a player didn't have their best game, she made sure to encourage them by saying she had watched their film and encouraged them to come back and excel the next time. She believes that people need that kind of support.
