Apparently angered by his team's poor and inconsistent play, Kobe Bryant is rumored to have unfollowed all of teammates on Twitter, according to Sports Illustrated.
According to SI, when he stopped following former teammate Dwight Howard last summer, Bryant indicated he makes it a policy not to follow players that don't help his Lakers win, prompting widespread belief that he has grown so disenchanted with the current Lakers' roster and now sees them in that same way.
The Lakers now stand at 19-39, dead last in the Western Conference and the Pacific Division. The team has dropped seven of its last nine games and in two of its most recent four losses fell by at least 20 points.
Bryant has been sidelined most of the year due to injuries, first from a torn Achilles he suffered late last season for which he is still recovering and more recently from a leg injury. The grizzled veteran has vowed to return to the floor at some point this season, even though many question what may be the reasons behind his decision given how far removed the Lakers are from playing in any games of significance.
Overall, Bryant has played 18 NBA seasons, averaging 26 points, five assists and five rebounds.
