Lucas Hernandez Jersey .With the Lakers facing roster cut-down decisions by 5 p.m. ET on Monday, Yi and his representatives requested that the team let him go to pursue other opportunities -- largely because the role he envisioned in Los Angeles didnt materialize.Yi was productive in practices and games with us, and was a consummate professional both on and off the court, Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak said in a statement.

He also had stints with the Brooklyn Nets, Washington Wizards and Dallas Mavericks in parts of five NBA seasons. Yi spent the past four seasons with Guangdong, and he averaged 20.4 points and 6.6 rebounds for China in its five games in Rio.For Robinson, who is entering his fifth season in the league, the Lakers will be his seventh team after being drafted fifth overall by the Sacramento Kings in 2012.Brown, a second-year wing, played sparingly in 2015-16 and throughout this preseason.The Lakers open their 2016-17 season Wednesday when they host the Houston Rockets at Staples Center.ESPN staff writer Baxter Holmes contributed to this report.
