Derek Lamar Fisher (born August 9, 1974) is an American professional basketball player with the Los Angeles Lakers of the NBA, whose NBA career has spanned more than 14 years.
Born in Little Rock, Arkansas, Fisher started out his basketball career at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, where he is regarded as one of the greatest basketball players in the history of the university. For his achievements at the university, he was rewarded as the Sunbelt Conference Player of the Year. Selected the twenty-fourth draft pick by the Los Angeles Lakers in the 1996 NBA Draft, Fisher spent his first eight seasons with the franchise. During this time, he played a key role in the Laker's "three-peat", and was the third leading scorer on the team behind teammates Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal. After his success with Los Angeles, Fisher opted out of his contract and signed with the Golden State Warriors. After his modest stint with Golden State, Fisher was traded to the Utah Jazz, where he enjoyed great success and helped lead the team to the Western Conference Finals. Due to his daughter's health, he asked to be released from his contract and rejoined the Lakers in 2007. In 2009, he won his fourth NBA Championship with the Los Angles Lakers. Only he and Kobe Bryant have played in all four of the Lakers' most recent championships.
One of the most popular Lakers of the past decade, Fisher has earned many achievements in his career. He has won four NBA Championships with the Los Angeles Lakers and is one of only four active players to have won four NBA Championships. In the past decade, he has played the most NBA Playoff Games (149) and played the tenth most Playoff minutes. (4,221) Fisher has the highest cumulative three-point percentage in NBA Finals history. He ranks third all time in NBA Finals three pointers made (41), only one shy of Michael Jordan for second all-time behind Robert Horry. He has the second highest three point field goal percentage in NBA Finals history (46.1%), trailing only Ray Allen. The NBA listed his "0.4 Shot" as the 18th greatest playoff moment of all time.
