Los Angeles Lakers guard Kobe Bryant told SiriusXM on Thursday that "if something doesn't change," the 2015-16 NBA season will be his last (h/t Frank Isola of the New York Daily News).
Bryant is a 17-time All-Star and future Hall of Famer, but injuries and declining production are clearly leading to the end of his career.
His scoring has dropped three of the past four seasons, and he played in just 41 games in two seasons prior to this year because of injuries.
To make matters worse—and what has to be eating at the ultra-competitive Bryant—the Lakers have not made the playoffs the past two seasons and are on pace for 15 wins after a 2-9 start this year.
