The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame announced the class of legends who will be enshrined in Springfield, Massachusetts.
Former NBA stars Vince Carter and Chauncey Billups headline the 13-member class, which also includes Lakers legends Michael Cooper and Jerry West -- who is the first person to be inducted into the Hall of Fame as both a player and a contributor.
The full list of nominees from the North American and women's committees were unveiled in December. Finalists for enshrinement were announced ahead of NBA All-Star Weekend in Salt Lake City, and the full class was announced as part of the NCAA men's basketball Final Four weekend in Houston.
Enshrinement weekend will begin at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut on Aug. 16, with the tip-off celebration and awards gala, inclusive of the Class of 2024 jacket and ring presentation and the annual Hall of Fame Awards. The enshrinement ceremony will take place Aug. 17 in Springfield's historic Symphony Hall.
