The late Lakers icon Kobe Bryant's investment for a 10 percent stake in sports drink BodyArmor for just $6 million in the company way back in 2014 has grown to $800 million.
That incredible gain surpassed by two and a half times more Bryant’s career NBA earnings of roughly $323 million in his 20 seasons playing for the Los Angeles Lakers.
When Coca-Cola acquired a minority stake in the sports drink company in 2018, Bryant's shares immediately soared to around $200 million.
Coca-Cola is reportedly close to acquiring a controlling stake in sports BodyArmor for $8 billion, which could be announced as early as Monday.
