Jerry West has been the NBA's logo for almost 50 years, and he thinks that's long enough.

The Lakers legend on Friday reiterated his belief that the NBA should update its logo to feature someone new.

"I don't like to do anything to call attention to myself and when people say that ('The Logo'), that's just not who I am, period," West said on "The Jump."

"And if they would want to change it, I wish they would."

West didn't offer any serious suggestions for a new legend to be the logo, but he's said Michael Jordan in the past, and at least one current NBA star agrees.

So would Lillard use the pretty famous one Jordan already has?
