{"title":"Jerry West","description":"\u003cp\u003eJerry West is the Hall of Fame Lakers guard whose silhouette is the NBA logo — a 14-time All-Star, 1969 Finals MVP (and only player ever to win it on a losing team), and the 1972 NBA champion who later became one of the greatest executives in basketball history. West played his entire 14-year career with the Los Angeles Lakers from 1960 to 1974, winning the 1972 NBA Championship and earning Finals MVP in 1969 despite the Lakers losing to the Celtics — the only such occurrence in NBA history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWest's silhouette is the official NBA logo. He won the 1972 NBA Championship with the Lakers' 33-game win streak team. West averaged 27.0 PPG for his career and 29.1 PPG in the playoffs — a still-elite postseason mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe card collector's view\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWest's rookie card is the 1961 Fleer #43 — a vintage chase piece and Lakers collection anchor, with high-grade examples driving headline auction interest.
