Metta World Peace, Formerly Ron Artest, Sports Jersey Reflecting Name Change for First Time (Photo)

The NBA is back, and so is Ron Artest. Wait, I mean Metta World Peace.

World Peace, formerly Ron Artest, made his name change official nearly two months ago after a three-week delay due to unpaid parking tickets. On Sunday, we got our first glimpse of Mr. World Peace’s new Lakers jersey.

The 32-year-old forward will still sport the No. 15 that he wore last season — which he switched to after wearing No. 37 during his first year in L.A. as a tribute to Michael Jackson‘s “Thriller,” which sat atop the Billboard charts for 37 weeks. But now, the purple lettering above the number will read “World Peace” rather than “Artest.”
