“Joe ‘Jellybean’ Bryant was a local basketball icon, whose legacy on the court transcended his journey across Bartram High School, La Salle University, and his first four NBA seasons with the 76ers from 1975-79,” the organization said. “Our condolences to the Bryant family.”

Doug Young, a former Kobe player, called Joe the perfect “role model.”
