Top moments from the 2024 Basketball Hall of Fame ceremony
The latest inductees into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame were officially enshrined Sunday, highlighted by a handful of notable moments.
The 2024 class included Vince Carter, Chauncey Billups, Michael Cooper, Seimone Augustus and Doug Collins. Jerry West was inducted for his work as a contributor, largely focused on his work with the Los Angeles Lakers as an executive. West became the first three-time inductee into the hall.
This year’s class also included the induction of four superfans into the James F. Goldstein SuperFan Gallery — Billy Crystal, Alan Horwitz, Spike Lee and Jack Nicholson.
There was no shortage of memorable sound bites and moments during the ceremony in Springfield, Massachusetts. Here’s a look at some of the highlights from the 2024 Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame ceremony.
