Genius player! The Lakers successor in Kobe s era, but he is not self-disciplined, and the current situation is worrying!

Recently, the current situation of a Lakers old player was revealed by the media. This Lakers old player is not very old now. If it were based on the current NBA player status, he would still be able to compete in the league! Even if he is the spiritual leader of the team and the bench leader, he can still do it! After all, there are many veterans in the league, including Curry, James, Durant, Harden, Westbrook, etc. Most of them are 37 years old, and they are the mainstays in the league and top stars! But this old Lakers player was not self-disciplined. He left the league early and faded out of the outside world.

He is 38-year-old Bynum. He has gained a lot of weight and the current situation is worrying. And he has quit the NBA alliance circle and lives a low-key life! Speaking of Bynum, this player is really talented. He became famous before entering the league and was a five-star high school student! In the 2005 NBA Draft, the 17-year-old was selected by the Lakers in the 10th pick. This talented player became the youngest rookie in league history. After two seasons of training and growth, he did not disappoint the team's expectations!

In the 2007-2008 season, Bynum averaged 14.3 points, 8 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game, with an average shooting percentage of 56.0% and a free throw percentage of 71.0%. He was selected as the second team of the NBA's best defensive team. In the 2008-2009 season, he helped the Lakers reach the finals again and helped the Lakers win the championship! In the 2009-2010 season, he also helped the Lakers win the championship! At this point, Bynum's position in the Lakers is getting higher and higher, and the team is also interested in cultivating him and making him the successor in the post-Bryant era!

Due to the favor of the team, Bynum became more confident. In the 2011-2012 season, Bynum ushered in the peak of his career. He averaged 18.7 points, 11.8 rebounds and 1.9 blocks per game, and his average shooting percentage was 56.0%. Due to his outstanding performance, in that season, Bynum was selected into the NBA All-Star starting lineup, and was selected into the NBA All-Squad second team and the NBA All-Defensive first team.

However, Bynum has a big problem personally and he is not self-disciplined! This caused the Lakers to lose patience with him and trade him to the 76ers! Due to his repeated injuries and lack of self-discipline, Bynum's competitive state has plummeted! In the 2013-2014 season, his condition was already very poor and he was in basketball! In the following season, he gradually had no ball to play! At the age of 26, he gradually withdrew from the league! He reached the peak of his career at the age of 24 and faded out of the league at the age of 26!

Bynum's own problems eventually hurt him. If he could maintain self-discipline and be proactive, with his talent, he would definitely make a world in the league and become the top superstar in the league! Unfortunately, he wasted his talent! Fortunately, he achieved financial freedom in the alliance, which allowed him to have food and clothing for the rest of his life!
