Kobe Bryant and Magic Johnson among players to pay tribute to the late Lakers owner who died of cancer this week.
On an emotional night in Los Angeles, stars of the Lakers franchise past and present paid tributes to the owner that brought ten world championships to the side since the 1970’s.
As the franchise begins to move forwards into a new era, it was clear Thursday night what kind of impact Buss had on the team and its players. It was a fitting tribute to an owner who had changed the fortunes of a mediocre team and the course of history, turning the franchise into one of the most recognisable brands in world sports.
