[McMenamin] LeBron James will change his uniform from No. 6 to No. 23 next season. “It’s LeBron’s decision,” Rich Paul of Klutch Sports Group told ESPN. “He chose to out of respect for Bill Russell.” The NBA retired No. 6 league-wide last August; James wore it a final season to honor Russell

    I love this! Bron has always been #23 to me

    Aye man Kobe was special he got 2 numbers retired cuz he Kobe man. Bron won with 23 lets ride this out with 23. 6 was for Miami. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it.

    I know all of us who have #23 jerseys and didn’t get the #6 are rejoicing right now lol

  11. hjy23k

    Cool, now there’s no dilemma on which number we retire lol

  14. CheezyEdweezy

    Wow shout out to the guy shopping at Lids lol

    23 kinda looked better for him to be honest. He would’ve kept that number his whole career had the Miami Heat not randomly retire it for Jordan.

    I’m sure he’ll get #6 retired for Miami, but if he ever gets a jersey retired for the Lakers. 100% now it will only be for #23 (the #6 years weren’t that good outside of the WCF chase anyway).

    Just said a cpl days ago that 23 jersey hit different and now its back! Yessirr!!!!

  17. just_one_random_guy

    I kinda prefer 23 over 6 for Lebron anyways, I’m glad he’s changing back.

  30. lakeshowyoo

    6 reminds me of the Westbrook era so I’m cool with it

  31. rafaelloso_10

    If you’re one of the people that bought the #23 jersey off the clearance rack when LeBron switched to #6 at the time….Congrats. 👍
