Fans crowded into the streets outside the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Sunday night, after the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Miami Heat 106-93 on Sunday night to win the NBA Finals in six games.

Anthony Davis had 19 points and 15 rebounds for the Lakers, who dealt with the enormous anguish that followed the death of the iconic former Lakers star Kobe Bryant in January and all the challenges that came with leaving home for three months to play at Walt Disney World in Florida, in a bubble designed to keep inhabitants safe from the coronavirus.

The league’s bubble chapter was put together after a 4 1/2-month suspension of play that started March 11 because of the coronavirus pandemic.
