West, who passed away at the age of 86, played his entire 14-year NBA career for the Los Angeles Lakers. The Hall of Famer earned an All-Star selection every season he was in the league en route to racking up 25,192 career points in a Lakers uniform. The only player who scored more points while wearing the purple and gold is Kobe Bryant (33,643).
