Lakers to Correct Spelling Errors on Kobe Bryant Statue

The team has pledged to fix multiple typos found on the newly unveiled tribute outside Crypto.com Arena.

The Los Angeles Lakers are addressing multiple spelling errors found on the Kobe Bryant statue outside Crypto.com Arena.
Mistakes include misspellings of Jose Calderon and Von Wafer's names, and the phrase 'Coach’s Decision' in the box score from Bryant's 81-point game.
The errors, which went viral after being highlighted by journalist André Voigt, will be corrected soon, according to the Lakers.
The statue, unveiled on February 8, 2024, is the first of three planned tributes to Bryant, who died in a helicopter crash in January 2020.
Fans and media have criticized the lack of attention to detail, contrasting it with Bryant's known meticulousness.
