What two-time NBA All-Star and 2004 member of Team USA left the Los Angeles Lakers after the worst season in franchise history in 2014-2015?
2015–16 Los Angeles Lakers season The 2015–16 Los Angeles Lakers season was the franchise's 68th season, its 67th season in the National Basketball Association (NBA), and its 56th in Los Angeles. The Lakers looked to rebound following its worst season in franchise history in 2014–15. Unfortunately, the Lakers would finish with a franchise-worst 17–65 record. Jordan Hill, Jeremy Lin, Wesley Johnson, Wayne Ellington, Carlos Boozer, Ronnie Price and Ed Davis all departed respectively. The Lakers drafted D'Angelo Russell, Larry Nance, Jr., and Anthony Brown in the 2015 NBA Draft. Afterwards, the Lakers traded for former Pacers' center Roy Hibbert and signed for the reigning Sixth Man of the Year, Lou Williams, and forward Brandon Bass. Former Lakers forward, Metta World Peace, was brought back to the team as well after the Lakers amnestied him in 2013. This was Kobe Bryant's final season with the team and in the NBA after he announced his retirement.
2014–15 Los Angeles Clippers season The 2014–15 Los Angeles Clippers season is the 45th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA), their 37th season in Southern California, and their 31st season in Los Angeles. Steve Ballmer became the new owner of Clippers. The team finished 56-26 on the season, only one game fewer than the previous season, clinching the third spot for the NBA Playoffs, where they defeated the defending champions San Antonio Spurs in the first round. The Clippers' season ended with a Game 7 western conference semi-finals loss to the Houston Rockets after leading the series 3–1.
