If he could adapt to being more of a team player and a spot up shooter of course he could, and thats no insult. Hes one of the goat one on one, or even one on five players. Hes just too old to be doing that now
No, he was awful in his last few years. If he was an elite three point shooter, he could be a limited roleplayer but he was shooting in the 20% range in his final years.
I think he could play like a quarter of the season.
Announce around January or the All Star Break. Return for the final 20 games and maybe a playoff push if the Lakers are competitive. Probably 15-20 minutes a game.
The thing about Kobe is that he could probably get on a hot shooting streak here and there but don't forget he shot below 40% his last 2 seasons in the league. And he'd almost certainly be a massive defensive liability at his age.
People shouldn't expect much.
