Bryant has matured tremendously over the years, which is something Jackson has alluded to in his book.
With rumors swirling over whether or not Jackson will return to the NBA, particularly to the Lakers, a good relationship between himself and Bryant is a crucial element.
Jackson’s book is set to be released on May 21, 2013. For more information you can also attend a town hall-style meeting with Jackson where he will discuss his memoir.
