Last week we broke down the 30 greatest scorers in Lakers’ franchise history and this week it is time to discuss the greatest Lakers’ players ever in franchise history. This means that players who played for the Minneapolis Lakers and pre-merger are included.
This list differs from the best players of all time, in that, just because they rank high on that list does not guarantee them a top spot in the Lakers’ top players in franchise history.
For example, just because we think Wilt Chamberlain is a top player of all time, does not means he is a top Laker of all time.
