Lkr Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 LOS ANGELES (AP) -- A bronze statue of late Los Angeles Lakers announcer Chick Hearn will be unveiled outside Staples Center. The public ceremony will take place Tuesday before the Lakers play Oklahoma City in Game 2 of their first-round playoff series. The statue weighs 5,000 pounds and stands nearly 16-feet tall. It will join other statues of Wayne Gretzky, Magic Johnson and Oscar De La Hoya outside the arena. Fans will be able to pose for photos with the sculpture by sitting in an empty chair at the announcer's table next to Hearn.http://www.nba.com/2010/news/04/16/hearn.statue.ap/index.html?rss=true About damn time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
