Derek Fisher Being Linked to Vanessa Bryant After Pic Surfaces

Derek Fisher shooting his shot at Vanessa Bryant? It was a star filled event at the 2021 WNBA All-Star Game in Las Vegas this week. Vanessa Bryant paid homage to her late daughter Gianna and her late husband Kobe at the annual game. But it wasn’t the tribute Vanessa paid that had people talking. It was a picture that surfaced showing former Kobe Bryant teammate Derek Fisher sitting next to Vanessa Bryant that had people talking.

Of course Twitter assumed the worst.

Unfortunately for Fisher, his reputation is the reason this pic has gone viral.

Matt Barnes and Derek Fisher were once teammates on the Los Angeles Lakers. They are also part of an infamous NBA saga, you know the one where Fisher is dating Barnes’ ex-wife Gloria Govan, and where Barnes and Fisher fought in 2015 over the woman in question.

Last time we checked in on Fisher, he’s still very much with Govan, so most likely this is much ado about nothing.

Dfish wouldn’t do Kobe like that.
