Four Wizards alumni are part of the Lakers’ 2019-20 NBA championship team

On Sunday, the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Miami Heat, 106-93 in Game 6 of the 2020 NBA Finals, giving them their 17th championship in league history. That number ties the Lakers with the Boston Celtics for the most in league history. And given that Lakers legend Kobe Bryant passed away last January in a helicopter crash, there is no doubt that his championship will be dedicated in his memory.

But the Lakers aren’t the reason why you read this site. So you may be surprised that not one, not two, not even three — but four players on this season’s Lakers team wore a Wizards uniform not too long ago.
