Having defeated Miami Heat 4-2 in the 2020 NBA Finals, the Los Angeles Lakers clinched their 17th NBA championship, drawing level with the Boston Celtics for the most titles of all time. The Celtics won eight straight titles between 1959 and 1966 with a team that is widely considered one of the best ever in the league. The Boston-based franchise has found success harder to come by in recent years, with the team's last championship title coming back in 2008.
