A beloved tradition of hardcore NBA fans is TNT’s annual Gone Fishin’ pictures, where the network hilariously photoshops players, coaches and even team executives onto a fishing boat to signify that their seasons are over.
Of course, TNT wasted no time in creating a Gone Fishin’ picture for the meme-tastic 2021-22 Los Angeles Lakers, whose season mercifully ended this week after one of the most embarrassing campaigns in club history. LeBron James floating on an inflatable donut while wearing a “Not a GM” tank top is particularly great.
Below, check out Inside the NBA’s Gone Fishin’ pics from throughout the years.
