The Tragic Death and Story of WNBA Player Kim Perrot 

Born and raised in Lafayette Louisiana this young lady wasn’t gonna to be stopped or denied. She was was a raw talent. I had the opportunity to watch her play in high school,college,and in the WNBA.

I remember watching her play. She was special. Gone too young

‘Bim’ was my ‘Nikka’ (best friend) and this Houston ‘community’ loved her and her rise in the WNBA! Thank you for sharing Her Story! Her life is a ‘Movie’ that should be shared! Luv You Bim!!!

Put her in the Hall of Fame she was the glue of the them comets teams RIP Kim 😢😢😢😢

This is 1 of the absolute BEST tributes EVER!!! her TENACITY BRAVERY & COURAGE speaks volumes… LONG LIVE HER MEMORY as a PERSON

Kim was one of the most exciting WNBA players to watch. Her heart and soul were in the game...I literally wept when she lost her battle.

She was the BEST!!! We loved her in Houston. ❤ RIP Kim.

Loved watching Perrot play with the Comets back in the day. Loved her personality and energy. Can't believe it's been 25 years.

I loved her game.... I got a chance to meet her in Texas, she was so very nice and humble...Rest EZ !!

Loved watching Kim play. It broke my heart when she passed away. 😭😭❤️❤️❤️

My brother was crazy about Kim, went to every game they had n still have her autographed picture, she's was a great player n fierce. Rip

She was the reason I wore #10 and I was GREAT in my days. I hope I did her proud. I really enjoyed her style of game. I learned alot from her. Houston Comets will always be my team. I'm never changing. I currently don't have a favorite today

I will never forget that game I was there. Loved when she and Cynthia Cooper, Tina Thompson, Cheryl Swoops. I remember when she got cancer and died.

Kim is one of my favorite players of all time! Thank you thank you thank you for this wonderful documentary of an amazing woman👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💐🤘🏾❤️‍🔥🏀💪🏾❤️

Thank you for making this film about Kim Perrot! I was living in Europe and the time, and it was only after I came back that I realized that WOW, we women have a basketball team!!!! I live in CT and I'm a Husky fan naturally!

Peace to Kim Perrot and her Fam.

Kimberly was very special young lady . She was the heart and soul comics if the Houston comics!! Until this day I think of her and the Comets even though the WNBA act like they never existed. Kim was a gift to the world that was here for a short time, BUT SHE WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN ❤❤❤

R.I.P.❤

She will be forever missed.

SHE WAS AN AMAZING PLAYER MAY SHE RIP GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN 🙏🏾❤️😘🥰

She was awesome and we Houstonians loved her! We all cried when she passed as she was a ball of energy and love! ❤❤❤

I loved her. She was a dog always full of energy. Her smile. She was a joy to grow up watching. Happy to see this and get to know more about her

Rest well! It's so incredibly awesome to be honored long after your transition! What an impactful life you lived.

If you never seen Houston comets play and got a chance to watch Kim play man it was great times gone too soon but definitely the heart of a champion all day. God blessed her to accomplish a lot in only 32 years of life a winner in every area of life even in the after life amen now that’s legacy

I was glad kim got picked to play with an outstanding team.. She definitely deserved to be a three time champion.......She endeared so much hardship..I had tears in my eyes when she fought to stay alive. She had a beautiful heart & soul.RIP Kim Perrot #10😢

Got my grown ass crying man this lady helped younger me with the coldest hoop game

This is so dope. I remember this very well. It was a huge thing in 96 when the WNBA was introduced, I had wondered what took so long, girls can play at a high level too. I had went to Texas Southern, so naturally I was rooting for the comics. They were superb and fierce on the court, they had such chemistry. My favorite player to this day is still Sheryl Swoopes, but I loved Cynthia, Tina etc.,Kim was my home girl (Louisiana born) so I had to rock with her and this team. 1999 was a memorable year. I played the hell out of the Miseducation of Lauryn HillI CD, I had my son, and I was glued to watching them play and win and the coverage on her fight with cancer. That was so heartbreaking for us fans, she was great, she made history and people are still talking about her today. That’s awesome. RIP Kim

She was such a great player in Houston. RIP Kim. Those Comets teams were special. ❤️❤️

I Always think about her never be forgotten Queen from PHILLY RIP PEACE KIM MUCH LOVE 💯✅️🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Thanks for the share!! An incredible woman ❤

She was a boss on the court, loved the game and every second she played. A real one. 🕊

I played AAU basketball summer league with her back in the day in H-town! As well as at Fonde recreational center- if you know, then you know! She was a force to be reckoned with- she gave hope to all of olds hens that missed the opportunity to play in the WNBA because we either too old or had families…she lived and loved the game! Much respect!!

1 of the best to do it!!! Rest Easy #Queen

We need a movie❤

RIP QUEEN great player

I remember when I was younger my mom and I used to cheer for the comets RipKimPerrot

I’ve never heard of this story before. My goodness 😢 to hear such loss is so very sad. RIP 🙏🏽

HELL YEAH BAD ASS ...I WISH SHE WAS HERE.. SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN A COACH OK !¡!😢😢😢😢 R.I.P KIM

She was great! Gone to soon. I remember the Houston Comets. Cynthia Cooper , kim and company. Great champions. R.I.P. Kim Perrot.❤❤❤

This was absolutely beautiful!!! This is my first time here, & I can't lie, my heart truly feels for this brave young lady! Are her jerseys still available? She was an amazing performer, & obviously an amazing person as well. Continue to R.I.P.!

Beautiful tribute ❤❤❤❤

I use to play against Kim in Sweden.she had a hard time getting in the league cause of all the protecting the big name players from big name schools she was beater than most and showed it when she finally got in the league

Such a tragedy 😢😢 loosing her siblings and dealing with Cancer and still encouraging her friends and teammates 🙏🏾🙏🏾❤❤

Let us not forget these ladies ❤❤❤

When women’s basketball was played the way it was supposed to be.

Her vibe was infectious!….

Never forget abt her Since 2000’s❤😊

Thank you so much for sharing this story. I knew of Women Basketball Players but I did not know her story. Such a beautiful soul and yes now I know and I will remember ❤🙏🏽

May she continue to RIP.

A real baller I cried my as* off when she died I was a huge comets fan. She was their emotional leader, this is why the WNBA needs more money and why ALL athletes need to be seen not just 1 player she literally played until she died. ❤ She gave everything she had.

Omg! Rest Well Beautiful ❤

I feel so sad for people like Kim. Both my parents passed of cancer. My Uncles and Aunts lost their battle with cancer. And now I'm battling stage 4 cancer. Yeah it's hereditary. But I was living a wild life. Somethings just aren't fair.

Rip Kim Perrot. This was terrible.. I remember this and her. Sooooo sad💔💔💔

Great presentation!! Every time the Comets came to our town they were treated like rock stars. Perot and Coop were our favorite. Rip Kim❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Had the chance to play pickup games with her at Emancipation Park in H-town. When she became Comet a it was great. When the Comets won back-to-back championships, it was even better. RIP.

OMG THIS IS SO SAD RIP 🙏🏼🏀

One of my favorite players of all time. Rest in pradise Champ!

Awww, I remember her! Her passing was definitely felt here in Houston

Every day ,every where , anytime god seeks an angel and Kim was in the place where god wanted her to come be that Angel rest in peace god blessed

I loved the Houston Comets and she was a great player. Rip

I remember watching her play as well as her passing. Thank you for this dedication to Kim.

Respect,heartfelt condolences n family/friends stay strong

Prayers 💚 🙏🏻 to the family

Kim 10🏀🕊

This is the first time I heard of her passing, I knew she was a cornerstone of the team but I lost track of her,so sorry to hear about her death and to deal with her sister's death at the same time is mind-blowing, very courageous and down to earth, she carried a lot of weight on those small shoulders, very brave woman R.I.P queen
