Kobe wearing his low haircut (like the current statue) white uniform. Wearing #24 Statue 3. Have GiGi in her basketball uniform. Wearing her #2. Kobe is wwering a coaching sweatsuit with GiGi team logo on the front. Kobe Wearing GiGi's #2 on his back. Kobe with his bald head and his beard that he sported after he retired.

Vanessa is the executor of Kobe's estate. The Lakers have to go through her for everything and respect her wishes. She gets the say on who gets to be there. So don't blame them, blame Vanessa for why the parents weren't there.
