- Kupchak won the Olympic Gold Medal in Montreal 1976
- As a the Lakers General Manager since the departure of his former boss and Laker Legend Jerry West, Kupchak has been in the news a lot for the aqcuisitions for the team and trades made and not made. He was involved among other movements in the arrival of Karl Malone and Gary Payton for the 2003-04 season, the departure of Derek Fisher, the trade that sent Shaq to Miami for Lamar Odom, Caron Butler and Brian Grant, later the bad move of sending Butler to Washington for Kwame Brown, his desire not to trade Andrew Bynum form Jason Kidd, and after receiving criticism for not building something good around Kobe, the trade that sent Brown to the Grizzlies that made him look like a genius.
