As everybody knows, the Los Angeles Lakers boast one of the richest histories in the world of 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 era of Jerry West, Elgin Baylor and Wilt Chamberlain. There was the Showtime era of Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Of course, the 2000s belonged to Shaquille O’Neal, 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 was unveiled in Koreatown, and it is a thing of beauty.

The mural was created by Jonas Never, who has made numerous murals across the greater Los Angeles area, including other murals of Bryant and James.
