Aside from the garish banana yellow, the worst part of the Nike unis, although we've probably gotten used to by now, is the WISH sponsorship.

I'm not saying get rid of them, they're not as obtrusive as OKC's or Chicago's ZENNI patches, but you got the most popular player on the most popular NBA team who just won a title and might win another, well then, isn't it time to pony up some $$$?

Lakers should fetch a higher price than GS and Rakuten, so whatever puts more money into Jeannie's pocket and reinvested into the team, I'm all for. Just consider something better than a dollar-brand Amazon knock-off that hawks chinese imitations on its platform

Is this a fundraiser for LG to become the official sponsorship?

I wish

The only sponsorship was on the back of the Jersey...front should only be the team name.

Do you think the Wish sponsorship was cheap? Don't get me wrong... they sell a lot of trash, but that's just it: they sell a lot. I'm fairly confident that they paid big bucks for that patch.

^They’re paying between $12-$14 million per year on a three year deal, according to the article.

I’ve always believed we should have gotten the Disney patches over Orlando. Who cares what they were offering. The Magic are getting paid to rep Disney World. But the Lakers could have supported Disneyland, Disney Studios in Burbank, Pixar, The Muppets, & Lucas Films, which are all based in California.
