wikipedia escribió:The Lakers are notable in that they are the only team in the NBA not to wear primarily white at home. However, since the
2002-03 season the team has worn white jerseys on Sunday and holiday home games. The
white jerseys were designed by Lakers owner Jerry Buss' daughter
Jeannie Buss, in tribute to
Chick Hearn, who was regarded as the voice of the team for forty years until his death in
August 2002.
In a rather unusual move, the team wore their home gold uniforms on the road in their
December 23,
2007 game against the
New York Knicks at
Madison Square Garden as opposed to their purple away uniforms, but both the Lakers and the
Knicks were wearing throwback uniforms during the game, so the Lakers
home gold uniforms were older versions. This was the game that
Kobe Bryant surpassed
Wilt Chamberlin as the youngest player to reach 20,000 points. Similarly, they wore the gold uniforms in a game against the
Sixers two nights before with both teams again wearing throwback uniforms.
[1]In a home game vs. the
Boston Celtics on
December 30,
2007,
the Lakers again wore their gold throwbacks, but wore short shorts from
the 1980's in the first half and returned to the longer ones for the
second half.
