Jerry West Just Made History - Here's Why He's Now the Undisputed King of the Hall of Fame!

Jerry West made history Sunday by becoming the first three-time inductee to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.

His record-breaking achievement comes as no surprise for one of the most influential figures in basketball history. A 14-time NBA All-Star and the NBA MVP in 1970, West's impact on the game extends beyond his impressive playing career. He has had a profound influence on the development of the league as a whole, serving as the General Manager of the Los Angeles Lakers and making some of the most pivotal trades and draft picks in the team's history.

West was initially inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1980 for his illustrious playing career. Since then, he has received two more inductions - this time as a contributor to the game. His most recent 2010 induction as an executive and his latest as an ambassador of the game solidify his position as one of the greatest contributors to basketball history.

The iconic silhouette of Jerry West is forever immortalized as the official logo of the NBA. This, of course, adds to his remarkable reputation and affirms the indelible mark he has left on the sport. He joins an elite group of five individuals inducted three times into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
