Marcelo Huertas thanks Lakers fans on Instagram before leaving Los Angeles

The Los Angeles Lakers may have traded Marcelo Huertas to the Houston Rockets for Tyler Ennis at the NBA trade deadline, but he was soon bought out of his contract and has sat in free agency ever since..

Anyone paying attention to his Instagram feed could see that Huertas stayed in Los Angeles for the rest of the season after calling it home for nearly two years previously, but it appears he is now departing:

This is truly a sad day, as it likely (and probably permanently) signals the end of Huertas’ time with the Lakers.
