The Lakers won their 17th NBA championship on Sunday by beating the Miami Heat, after which Lakers fans took to the streets to celebrate.

Fans, many of whom wore Kobe Bryant jerseys, could be heard chanting the late Lakers icon's name, while other gathered close to murals around downtown Los Angeles.

Bryant and his daughter, Gianna, died alongside seven others in a helicopter crash in California in January.

76 people were arrested after the celebrations turned "confrontational" and "violent," with a number of "unruly individuals" clashing with police.

It is unclear whether any of those arrested were involved in the incident shown in the video.

Bryant spent his entire career with the Lakers, winning five NBA titles, the last of which came in 2010.
