I think these things are so cool. I want a jersey. Murphy said at the time. "My mother said, okay, but you have to choose which one you like. Remember that you have to think carefully and make a choice after careful consideration. I said, I want that, that’s why I started playing basketball. I still keep my yellow junior Lakers jersey. It seems that Shay Murphy is the first woman in the history of the Lakers to be hired as a coach and one of the few people in the history of NBA .
