The NBA announced on August 12, 2022, that no. 6 would be retired league-wide in honor of Bill Russell. Current players wearing no. 6, such as the Lakers' LeBron James, would be grandfathered by the rule.

Honored Minneapolis Lakers: Next to their retired numbers, the Lakers have hung a banner with the names of five Hall-of-Famers who were instrumental to the franchise's success during its days in Minneapolis:

No. 22 jersey was retired for Elgin Baylor; 34 was retired for Shaquille O'Neal in April 2013; 17 was previously worn by Andrew Bynum and Rick Fox, and 19 is currently not being worn.
