The Los Angeles Lakers unveiled their new In-Season banner

The Los Angeles Lakers unveiled their new In-Season banner on Monday night, marking a historic moment in the team’s arena.

Despite the 114-109 loss to the New York Knicks, coach Darvin Ham and star LeBron James expressed enthusiasm for this recognition. The team broke warm-up for a short ceremony, during which the new banner and a video tribute were shown.

The banner, which is about half the size of the franchise’s 12 NBA title banners, stands next to the five title banners won in Minneapolis. James praised the recognition of the victories during the season and stressed the importance of celebrating those successes. The ceremony ended quickly without prolonged speeches, allowing the team to focus on the game against the New York Knicks.
