Los Angeles Lakers player and executive Jerry West died today at age 86. He was an Olympic gold winner and became a key figure in the NBA in many ways, not least as the inspiration for its logo. Designer Alan Siegel said he based the logo on a photo of West's perfect dribbling form. "It's the easiest job I ever had," Siegel told CNN Sports, which has the full story plus a tribute to West.
