As everyone knows, the Los Angeles Lakers boast one of the richest histories in sports, and their lineage of all-time greats rivals that of any other team in any sport.
There was the George Mikan era, there was the Jerry West era, Elgin Baylor, Wilt Chamberlain, there was the Showtime era of Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and of course, the 2000s, which belonged to Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol.
These days, the purple and gold torch is in the hands of LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
A new mural honoring Johnson, Abdul-Jabbar, Bryant, O’Neal, Gasol, Davis and James has just been unveiled in Koreatown, and it’s a sweet thing.
The mural was created by Jonas Never, who has created many murals throughout the greater Los Angeles area, including other murals by Bryant and James.
