4. Pau Gasol
A six-time All-Star, Pau Gasol had his best years with the Lakers. After the Memphis Grizzlies traded Gasol to Los Angeles in 2008, he became part of a title contender for the next few seasons.
Gasol was pivotal for the Lakers’ back-to-back championships in 2009 and 2010, being a viable No. 2 option behind Bryant.
As a mobile big man, Gasol was particularly skilled in the pick-and-roll. While with the Lakers, Gasol scored 17.7 points per game and grabbed 9.9 rebounds.
Gasol, 39, isn’t retired, as he was released by the Portland Trail Blazers in November of last year. With the release, Gasol has used the time away to work on rehabbing from a left foot surgery.
As arguably a future Hall of Famer, Gasol had a successful prime. During the two postseasons he won championships, Gasol averaged at least 18.0 points per game and 10.0 rebounds a game.
