Jordan Hill (F) LAL
Hill averaged five points and 4.8 boards in 14.1 minutes per game while starting the season in Houston and being sent to the Lakers in a midseason trade.
Pau Gasol (C) LAL
Gasol's 17.4 points per game in 2012 was the worst scoring average of his 12-year career. This was due largely to Andrew Bynum's emergence as a superstar center, thanks to his ability to remain healthy all season. Despite the drop in scoring, Gasol was impressive elsewhere, averaging 10.4 boards, 3.7 assists and 1.4 blocks per game while shooting 50 percent from the field.
Devin Ebanks (F) LAL
Ebanks played in just 24 games for the Lakers in 2012, averaging four points and 2.3 rebounds per game.
Kobe Bryant (G) LAL
After undergoing an experimental knee procedure in Germany in the 2011 offseason, Bryant outperformed his fantasy draft slotting for the 2012 season. His 27.9 points and 5.4 rebounds per game were his best averages in four years. He slipped elsewhere though, shooting 43 percent from the field and 30.3 percent from downtown - his worst shooting percentages in more than a decade. His 3.5 turnovers per game were also his worst average since the 2004-05 season.
Andrew Bynum (C) LAL
Bynum plans to focus on his jump shot in the offseason, the Orange County Register's Kevin Ding reports.
