Chinese star Yi Jianlian and forward Anthony Brown were the final two players waived by the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday, meaning former All-Star forward Metta World Peace and fellow veteran Thomas Robinson have made the teams season-opening roster.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. However, he felt that the minutes and opportunities hed be afforded here were not in line with his goals and ambitions, and that hed be better off in a different situation. We appreciate his efforts and wish him great success as he goes forward with his career.This will mark NBA season No. 17 for World Peace, who will turn 37 in November. He averaged 5.0 points over 16.9 minutes in 35 appearances for the Lakers last season.After his strong play with China in the Rio de Janeiro Olympics, Yi was signed by the Lakers in August to a one-year, $8 million deal that was uniquely structured, featuring $6.8 million in what the league deemed likely bonuses.But the defined role Yi expected when he agreed to leave the Guangdong Southern Tigers in his native China -- with minutes at both power forward and center -- didnt pan out as he had hoped this month, prompting the 28-year-old to seek his release.Coming in, we knew we had a few young guys that we really like and want to develop and we had just signed [Timofey] Mozgov to a pretty big deal, so he was really going to have to outplay everybody to get big minutes, because of the players we needed to develop, coach Luke Walton said. He did a great job. He was great while he was here. He proves that he belongs in this league, but I dont think at the end of it that he was happy with the minutes that it looked like, at least, he was getting. So they asked for the release.The Lakers had been pursuing Yi for the past two offseasons before they finally managed to sign him to a deal and bring him back to the NBA.It was not immediately known whether Yi would try to catch on with another? NBA team or look to return to the Chinese Basketball Association.The 7-footer was the No. 6 pick by the Milwaukee Bucks in the 2007 draft. 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. Matt Slauson Jersey . The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the Lions have not announced the hiring, which was first reported by ESPN. Lombardi, the grandson of former Green Bay Hall of Fame coach Vince Lombardi, has been an offensive assistant on Sean Paytons New Orleans staff since 2007. Al Woods Jersey . -- Damian Lillard and LaMarcus Alrdridge were again the go-to duo for the Trail Blazers against the Kings. http://www.coltsfansshop.com/Colts-Marlon-Mack-Draft-Jersey/ . -- Catcher Brett Hayes has agreed to a $630,000, one-year contract with the Kansas City Royals, avoiding salary arbitration. Darius Leonard Jersey . Hazard cut in from the left and scored with a swerving right-footed shot for ninth goal of the season, which proved to be enough for the victory despite Chelseas forwards again lacking a cutting edge up front. Adam Vinatieri Jersey . "Hes going to have hip surgery on Jan. 7, and hell be expected to rehabilitate for four to six months beyond that," Canucks general manager Mike Gillis said Friday in an interview. BELO HORIZONTE, Brazil -- Its not just tradition, and its not just Neymar. Brazil also has a new coach, and he has turned things around.The five-time World Cup champions have moved up from sixth place to first in South American qualifying since Tite took over in June with victories over Ecuador, Colombia, Bolivia and Venezuela.The next test will come against Lionel Messi and his Argentina teammates on Thursday at the Mineirao Stadium.There is a before Tite and an after Tite for Brazil, Argentina defender Julio Buffarini said Tuesday. You can see that in Brazils game and in the results the team has gotten in the qualifiers.Argentina coach Edgardo Bauza is another fan, and friend, of Tite. The pair recently coached in the Brazilian league, Tite at Corinthians and Bauza at Sao Paulo.Tite changed the way Brazil plays, with five agile players in tthe midfield and a lot of finishing power, Bauza said.dddddddddddd He is very talented.His style has certainly impressed Brazil winger Douglas Costa, who compared Tite to Carlo Ancelotti, his coach at Bayern Munich.They do well because they deal well with the athletes, they are very human, Costa said. They like this exchange with the players in the dressing room, they listen to us. That is their biggest virtue.Thursdays match will be played in the stadium that hosted Brazils stunning 7-1 loss to Germany in the 2014 World Cup semifinals. But this is a different team, mainly because of Tite.(He) took them to the top of the group, Argentina midfielder Enzo Perez. They are playing at home ... But we will make our case.
