Magic Johnson is one of the most popular players in NBA (and Los Angeles Lakers) history.
He still remains very active on social media, speaking about sports (and current events).
On Monday, Johnson made a heartfelt post to X that had over 5,000 likes and 150,000 impressions in five hours.
He wrote: "Cookie and I are sad to hear about the passing of our dear friend Malcolm-Jamal Warner. We were both super fans of the hit Cosby Show and continued to follow his career on shows like Malcolm and Eddie and The Resident. Every time I ran into Malcolm, we would have deep and fun conversations about basketball, life, and business. He will truly be missed. Cookie and I are praying his family and close friends during this difficult time."
