Jazz assistant coach reveals intelligent Kobe Bryant lesson he learned

Love him or hate him, Kobe Bryant was a basketball icon. Even to this day, he gets celebrated whenever his accomplishments get brought up. In the Utah Jazz's case, they were a thorn in his side in his early days. To Jazz assistant coach Jason Terry, he still remembers what Bryant taught him: live every day like it's your last and up to your full potential.

In an exclusive interview with Ratings' Landon Buford, Terry revealed what Bryant taught him before his death.

“The most important thing I learned from Kobe is this: He once said that, as humans, we always think we have more time — that there will be a next play, another game, another day, or another opportunity to tell your daughters or your family members that you love them,” Terry told Buford.
