Should the NBA change its logo?

75th Annivesary Logo of the NBA

When Kobe Bryant tragically died last January 26, 2020, some fans called for the NBA to change its logo. The most prominent fan of the possible change was Kyrie Irving of the Brooklyn Nets.

Although the league has refused to acknowledge that Jerry West was used for the famous logo that was introduced in 1969, the logo's designer Alan Siegel has confirmed that he did, indeed, use West as inspiration.

According to the Online Betting survey regarding logos, 35% of the voters believe that it's time for the NBA to update their logo. Thirty-one percent of those voters think it should be Kobe Bryant, while 22% want it to be Michael Jordan.
