The Real co-host, who's the same age as the late NBA superstar, remembered his guest role on her and her sister Tia's ABC TGIF sitcom shortly after he was drafted in 1996 at age 17. “I remember just looking at him — he was so tall. He had just started playing for the Lakers, and I didn’t know what to expect,” said Tamera Mowry-Housley on The Real. “I’ll never forget his humility. I’ll never forget his kindness, and even then his work ethic. He was on Sister, Sister. He was so nervous and he had, like, one or two lines, but I was like, ‘Dang! He’s so focused!” ALSO: The Bachelor fans got emotional when "Kobe" was uttered on last night's episode.
