Los Angeles Lakers: Kobe Bryant
He’s 36 years old, and father time is catching up to him. He hasn’t seen a shot he didn’t like all year. Double teams and triple teams don’t matter because he’ll still throw something up.
Kobe is averaging 26.7 points in 14 games this year, but he’s shooting a career worst 38 percent from the field.
I would take him off this list if he averaged less points and more assists. The Lakers would benefit from this mightily.
