Fans of the Los Angeles Lakers basketball team were seen celebrating and lining the streets causing traffic jams in the downtown area of the city.

Footage from October 11 filmed by Twitter users @jaskangSBN, @ALvinRueda and @biancanbueno, respectively, shows the frivolities of fans who are seen in large crowds and lighting fireworks.

Los Angeles mayor, Eric Garcetti, had earlier asked fans to celebrate at home and not gather downtown or near the Staples Center, due to the risk of spreading coronavirus.

The Lakers beat Miami Heat 106-93 to win their 17th title as champions.
