Lakers Unveil Kobe Bryant Statue w/ at Least 4 Typos



The Los Angeles Lakers came under fire for unveiling a statue dedicated to the late basketball legend Kobe Bryant, with several glaring typos apparent on the monument.

The backlash erupted after German basketball journalist André Voigt shared photos showcasing the errors, notably the misspelled names of former professional basketball players José Calderón and Von Wafer.


Displayed box score, the names were erroneously rendered as “Jose Calderson” and “Vom Wafer.” The box show shows the 81-point results of a game between the Lakers and the Toronto Raptors.

Additionally, another section of the statue featured an incorrect format for listing Bryant’s accomplishments.

In response, a Lakers spokesperson told ESPN: “We have been aware of this for a few weeks and are already working to get it corrected soon.”
