Former NBA player Caron Butler, who played for the Lakers from 2004-2005, supported the idea of the Lakers wearing throwback blue jerseys with "Crenshaw" emblazoned on them in honor of Nipsey Hussle. 

He wrote on Thursday (July 18), "Can you imagine pulling up to @STAPLESCenter on a Friday night!@LAClippers is #Red #Crenshaw uniforms @Lakers in #Blue #Crenshaw uniforms honoring @NipseyHussle and UNITY. Along with a hell of a Game on display
#ILoveThisGame#ThinkingOutLoud." 

Dwyane Wade commented on Butler's post, writing, "The culture needs this."
