Boozer becomes an unrestricted free agent heading into the offseason after serving a bench role with the Lakers. The 11-year veteran had a statistically mediocre season in which he averaged 11.8 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.6 steals, and 0.2 blocks in 24 minutes per game. Boozer contributed to the Lakers throughout the 2014-15 season as a bench player, appearing in 71 games. It was expected that the 33 year old would play fewer minutes this past season due to his age, loss of production, and defensive woes so the decrease in points and rebounds from last season is not a surprise. He did not have much value in most standard leagues, especially because of his faults in defensive categories, and that trend is likely to continue for the rest of his future in the league. Boozer has entered the time period of his career in which he is accepting of a bench role and wants nothing but a championship. He has expressed interest in re-signing with the Lakers in hopes of winning a title, as the team has a possibility of improving enough this offseason to become a legitimate contender, having the second pick in the draft, the return of Kobe Bryant, and a possible big-name free agent signing. No matter what team Boozer ends up signing with this offseason, he is likely to remain in a bench role and see a decrease in production and minutes, which gives him very little value in standard leagues.
