The 2024 ESPYs paid tribute Thursday night to the many great athletes who passed away in the last 12 months ... but one name was notably left out -- O.J. Simpson.
The annual award show took place at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles ... and as they do every year, ESPN officials ran their "In Memoriam" segment to reflect on the stars the sports world lost since the last iteration of the event.
HONORING THE GIANTS ABC
Willie Mays, Larry Allen, Jerry West and Bill Walton, among others, were shouted out during the impactful portion of the show.
