Los Angeles Lakers have always been able to attract superstars to their team. This has been due to the rich history and legacy they have created over the years. Few legendary players who have donned the purple and gold are Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson, Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O’Neal, LeBron James, amongst others.

However, there is one difference between LeBron and other legends. LeBron has won just one NBA championship with the Lakers, while others have been successful with the Lakers multiple times.

Former Lakers legend Magic Johnson has himself admitted the Lakers fans love that LeBron and he just needs to win another championship with them.

Magic Johnson feels LeBron James needs just one more championship to become one of the greatest Lakers

Former Lakers star Magic Johnson recently appeared in an interview where he talked about business, Lakers, and LeBron. During the interview, he was asked what can LeBron do to ‘climb the ranks of as one of the greatest Lakers’. To this Magic Johnson replied: “Just win. He’s got to win another one.”

“The Laker fans already love him. He’s already brought us one. He’s already got his jersey, it’ll be hanging up, but most of the guys who’ve been with the Lakers have won multiple championships. So, that’s all he has to do. Just win another one. Then it’s not just about the Lakers. It’s all about his legacy here, and it’s not just here — it’s in Hollywood. LeBron, he’s so amazing, not just as a basketball player, but he’s the biggest celebrity in a celebrity-driven town. So you got to give him credit for that too, as well.”

Magic Johnson is regarded by many as the greatest point guard of all time. In fact, he is credited with revolutionizing the role of a point guard in the NBA. For his contributions, the Lakers have retired Magic Johnson’s jersey number 32. LeBron James may be the biggest star in LA right now, but he has won just one championship with the Lakers. His biggest contribution has been with Miami Heat, where he won two championships.

However, the Lakers have a monstrous roster at their helm this season. Despite a disappointing start to the 2021-22 campaign, the Lakers are among the title contenders this season. King James is in red hot form and that was visible during the first game. With a top tea at his side, LeBron could power the Lakers to their 18th NBA title this season.
