[Trudell] On Jan. 13 (home game vs. Wemby and San Antonio), the Lakers will be thrilled to add the newest Purple and Gold member of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, Michael Cooper, into the rafters, retiring his No. 21 alongside the rest of the Laker greats.

Cooper was one of the best perimeter defenders in the 80s — a lot of his steals and deflections helped spark those Showtime Lakers’ fastbreaks
Well deserved! Can’t wait for that day!
LA kid who played for his hometown team and now gets to be honored forever by them, that’s awesome
All about this
Fuckin love Coop. Can’t wait for him to be honored with the rest of his guys.
Well deserved. He was an instrumental player on the Showtime era Lakers.
