When it was unveiled last February, the Los Angeles Lakers made several mistakes on the marble base of the Kobe Bryant statue outside Crypto.com Arena. Fans noticed typos in the names of players José Calderón and Von Wafer.
âWe have been aware of this for a few weeks and are already working to correct it soon,â a Lakers spokesperson said on March 11. After several weeks, the Los Angeles franchise has already corrected these errors in the statue that reflects Kobe Bryantâs pose when he scored 81 points in 2006 against the Toronto Raptors.
The errors were the subject of massive criticism since âBlack Mambaâ is one of the most beloved players of the Los Angeles Lakers for the championships he won and for what he did for the city, such as finding a solution against homelessness. The Lakers corrected the names of former Raptors players JosĂ© CalderĂłn and Von Wafer, originally carved as âCaldersonâ and âVom Wafer.â
They also fixed the word carved into that gameâs boxscore that read âCoachâs Decicionâ and corrected it to âCoachâs Decisionâ. Finally, the Lakers also corrected the part where the achievements of âBlack Mambaâ appear during his 20 seasons with the Los Angeles Lakers.
