The date of the Los Angeles Lakers' championship parade is still unclear given the current circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic.
After consulting with the city and county of Los Angeles, the Lakers announced on Monday they'll hold a "joyful and inclusive" public celebration when it's deemed safe to do so.
While a parade is unlikely to be held in the immediate future, Lakers fans still managed to show their support by greeting the club as they arrived back to Los Angeles.
