Obama made the remarks at the NBA All-Star Weekend Newsmaker Brunch on Saturday.
"That loss is something that I know many are still grappling with—particularly Kobe because he was with his daughter and those families, and those children," he said.
"And those of us who have had the joy and privilege of being parents and taking kids to ballgames, and then rooting for our children, and seeing our dreams and hopes passed on to them—nothing is more heartbreaking," Obama continued."And so I want to offer the NBA family Michelle and my deepest condolences and obviously the families of the Sterns and the Bryants.
