Los Angeles Lakers is a traditional strong team. Why don't they have mascots?

As we all know, NBA is very popular, which pushes basketball to the peak. We often get NBA mascots, which usually come from the team names of various teams or local rare animals in American States. During the game suspension, there are many kinds of performances, including super-difficult fancy dunks and all kinds of cool dance moves, which can enrich the atmosphere during the game suspension. Then why don't the Lakers have mascots? Is it because they don't need it?

In fact, the two teams in Los Angeles-the Lakers and the Clippers-are two teams without team mascots. However, we will see a figure in every home game of the Lakers, that is, Oscar-winning Jack Nicholson, and we usually call him the mascot of the Lakers.

Nicholson has been nominated for 12 Oscars. He is also one of the most nominated actors in Oscar history and is known as the "King of Oscars". 1994, American Film Academy awarded him the Lifetime Achievement Award. 1999 The 56th Golden Globe Award also awarded him a lifetime achievement award.

As early as 1970s, Nicholson was a die-hard fan of the Lakers. For more than 30 years, he rarely missed the home game of the Lakers, and even revised his work schedule to watch the game. There are eight courtside seats next to the Lakers bench at home, two of which are exclusive to Nicholson and not for sale. Nicholson's classic style of wearing a black jacket and sunglasses has become a symbol of Staples Arena. He is a loyal fan of the Los Angeles Lakers and a real-life mascot of the Lakers.

The Los Angeles Lakers are located at Staples Arena in downtown Los Angeles. It is the home of two NBA teams, the Los Angeles Lakers and the Los Angeles Clippers. However, the recognition of the Lakers in this field is obviously higher than that of the Los Angeles Clippers, which has a poor record. On March 3 1, 1999, 10, 17, the Staples Arena, which broke ground, was officially completed, with a total cost of $3.8 billion and a capacity of 18997 spectators.

This arena is designed in strict accordance with the professional field of modern basketball. Everything on the court can be clearly seen from any angle of the three-story stand, with nearly 300 luxury boxes, which is a trendy basketball court feature. There are six TV screens hanging on the top of the stadium, and every wonderful picture in the game can be played back in slow motion in time. The entire arena is divided into more than 400 blocks with nearly 200 passages.
