Editorial Reviews

Only Boston's mighty Celtics can match the stratospheric achievements of the Minneapolis and L.A. Lakers franchise, and not even they can top the Lakers' roster of stars. From Mikan and Mikkelsen to Baylor, West, and Chamberlain to Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson, and Kobe Bryant, this high-flying combine has had it all. Lakers Glory draws on the memories of players, fans, and coaches to pay tribute to these 15-time pro basketball champions.
