“2 statues of him carrying Kobe’s bags?” – NBA fans explode over ex-Lakers champ’s alleged claim in wake of LeBron James’ LA statue buzz

The rich history of the LA Lakers franchise is filled with all-time basketball greats. A number of these legends have been honored with statues outside the Lakers’ home venue of Crypto.com Arena, and for quite some time, there has been buzz about current Lakers superstar LeBron James getting an LA statue of his own.

Now, a quote attributed to former Lakers court general Derek Fisher is making the rounds. If this quote is to be believed, Fisher has supposedly made his own claim to be immortalized via sculpture.

“If LeBron gets a statue, I better get 2 of them,” Fisher allegedly said.
