Quick Glance: Kobe Bryant's Official Statue Contains 3 Misspelled Names and Words
- Former Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant’s statue immortalizing his 81-point game against the Toronto Raptors in January 2006 has several misspellings.
- Three names and words are misspelled. Jose Calderon's last name, who played eight NBA seasons with the Raptors, is written as "Calderson."
- Von Wafer, a six-year NBA player, has his first name as "Vom" on the statue and the word decision spelled as "Decicion" in one instance.
- With the revelation of the multiple spelling errors on Bryant's statue, hopefully, corrective actions will be taken soon. Stay tuned for updates on the misspelled names and words in the days to come.
