Derek Fisher
He is one of the most popular Lakers players of all-time; He played on five NBA Championship teams with the Lakers
Fisher's journey to the NBA began at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, where he played college basketball and was named the Sun Belt Conference Player of the Year in 1996. That same year, he was selected by the Lakers with the 24th overall pick in the NBA Draft. His early years with the Lakers were marked by success, as he played a key role in the team's three consecutive championships from 2000 to 2002 under the leadership of coach Phil Jackson. Fisher's chemistry with Bryant and O'Neal was instrumental in the Lakers' dominance during that era.
After a brief stint with the Golden State Warriors and Utah Jazz, Fisher returned to the Lakers in 2007, where he added two more NBA titles to his resume in 2009 and 2010. His leadership on and off the court was invaluable, and he continued to be a key contributor in high-stakes moments. Fisher's career also included time with the Oklahoma City Thunder and Dallas Mavericks, where he provided veteran experience and leadership to younger teams. His eighth NBA Finals appearance came with the Thunder in 2012, further solidifying his legacy as a player who consistently performed at the highest level.
Following his playing career, Fisher transitioned into coaching, taking the helm of the New York Knicks in 2014 under the guidance of Phil Jackson, who had become the team's president. Although his tenure with the Knicks was short-lived, Fisher continued to stay involved in basketball as a television analyst and later as the head coach of the Los Angeles Sparks in the WNBA from 2019 to 2022. His extensive experience as both a player and coach has made him a sought-after figure in the basketball community, known for his insights and leadership qualities.
