Kyrie Irving suggests Kobe Bryant should replace actual NBA’s logo
The silhouette of Jerry West has been the NBA’s logo for over five decades
Kobe Bryant as next NBA logo?
This is what Kyrie Irving suggested with a post on Instagram.
Per CBS Sports, The silhouette of Jerry West has been the NBA’s logo for over five decades. An artist was first commissioned to design it in 1969 and the league has not changed it ever since. It is simple and iconic and has given the NBA one of the most recognizable logos of all of the professional sports leagues.
But Kyrie Irving would prefer to update it. The Brooklyn Nets guard had a particularly close relationship with Kobe Bryant, and on Wednesday, he took to Instagram to argue that the Lakers legend should replace West as the league’s logo.
