Sometimes, NBA players are given chances to retire with dignity with the franchise they played for and identified with for several years.
But some stars aren't so lucky, and in their later years when they are a shadow of their former self, they are unceremoniously traded to another team or sign a contract with another team for various reasons. Sometimes we choose to ignore these last years and just think about the player in terms of the team he shined with in his prime, but this quiz is here to face reality.
After I name a legendary (or notable in another way) NBA player, tell me the NBA team that he LAST played for.
(Sometimes a player will get traded and then retire before suiting up for the new team, or an already retired player's contract will be traded for cap space, or a player will play in a non-NBA league, but just ignore those: this quiz just asks with which NBA team did they last actually play a game for.)
Some are obvious, but others may surprise you as history sometimes chooses to ignore the twilight years of players and pretend they only played for the team they shined for.
