Notes: Gasol will have his number retired March 7. … Bryant also had his number retired by the Dallas Mavericks, even though he never played with them. … Bill Russell’s 6 will be retired league-wide. Will the Lakers put that one on the wall?

GALAXY

Retired: 13 Cobi Jones

You can make a case: 10 Landon Donovan, 23 David Beckham

Notes: No. 13 was semiofficially retired when Jones retired in 2007 but was issued to Jermaine Jones in 2017, with Cobi Jones saying he was “passing the torch.” It is not currently used by a Galaxy player. … Donovan and Beckham have statues at the Galaxy’s home stadium in Carson. Retiring the “10” is almost sacrilegious in soccer anyway, but Donovan did wear No. 26 when he came out of retirement to rejoin the Galaxy in 2016.

LAFC

Retired: None. It’s too soon.

It’s a lock: 10 Carlos Vela

Note: See the Donovan item above re: No. 10.

USC FOOTBALL

Retired: 3 Carson Palmer, 11 Matt Leinart, 12 Charles White, 20 Mike Garrett, 32 O.J. Simpson, 33 Marcus Allen

You can make a case: 5 Reggie Bush, 55 Junior Seau

Note: All of USC’s retired numbers went to Heisman Trophy winners (and now that Bush is no longer persona non grata with the NCAA, his might be officially retired too at some point). No. 3 was taken out of retirement this year and issued to wide receiver Jordan Addison, with Palmer’s blessing. Previously, Garrett allowed Darnell Bing to bring his No. 20 out of retirement.
