Kobe Bryant statue features several typos, Lakers working to correct them

Kobe Bryant was given the ultimate honor posthumously in February, when the Los Angeles Lakers unveiled a statue of him outside Crypto.com Arena.

A little more than a month after the ceremony, the Lakers have acknowledged that several errors on the statue will be corrected.

The names of Jose Calderon and Von Wafer are misspelled in the replica box score from Bryant's 81-point game in 2006 against the Toronto Raptors, as is the phrase "Coach's Decision." On the side where Bryant's career accomplishments are listed, there is a formatting error.
