Tony Parker and LeBron James' debuts had us thinking about other NBA stars that played for teams you might not remember.

This past weekend, we saw a few stars make their debut with new NBA teams.

Among the group, it was downright weird to see LeBron James in a Los Angeles Lakers jersey. Even stranger? Tony Parker in anything other than a San Antonio Spurs uniform.

This is far from the first time an NBA star has put on a jersey that just doesn't look right; there are plenty of others that made moves at the end of their career that are often forgotten.

But that's why we're here! Let me jog your memory on some of the strangest fits between NBA teams and aging superstars.

Let's start with the opening weekend of preseason action...

This is going to take some getting used to.

LeBron signed a four-year deal with the Lakers this offseason, trying to cement a legacy among some of the all-time greats to put on the purple and gold.

Spurs fans, shield your eyes. After playing his first 17 seasons in San Antonio, winning four NBA titles and a Finals MVP, Parker has made the move to Charlotte to take on a mentor role with the Hornets.

While these are the most recent of players looking odd in a new NBA uniform, let's go back to 1995…

Remember this?

After 11 straight All-Star appearances with the Atlanta Hawks, Dominique Wilkins signed with the Boston Celtics in the 1994 offseason. They went 35-47 but still reached the playoffs, where they would fall to Shaq, Penny and the Orlando Magic in the first round. It was Wilkins' only season in Boston.

Speaking of Boston...

This Celtics legend, Robert Parish, concluded his Hall of Fame career in Chicago in 1997. You likely forgot about it because he only played 43 games in a Bulls uniform.

You're welcome for feeding you a future basketball trivia night answer.

And while we're on the Bulls...

https://images.daznservices.com/di/library/NBA_Global_CMS_image_storage/d4/3/dennis-rodman-100118-nba-getty_1b5jp4nwmgs3f1bdd78jjll9qf.jpg?t=816739262&w=500

At least the jersey matches his hair, right?

In the 1999-00 season, Rodman played in 12 games for the Mavericks. I'm not sure what's the most eye-popping note of his Dallas career - that he played with Dirk Nowitzki and Steve Nash, that he grabbed 171 rebounds in just 12 games or that he was thrown out of two of the 12 games.

That brings us to a pair of other big men that didn't quite fit into new threads...

https://images.daznservices.com/di/library/NBA_Global_CMS_image_storage/a7/76/patrick-ewing-100118-nba-getty_br7lx4b2sq6s1hyz241ddim9s.jpg?t=816419262&w=500

I'll let you decide which looks less-fitting.

In 2001, Patrick Ewing played in 79 games for the Seattle Supersonics. They finished six games over .500 but missed the playoffs. In 2002, he made a move to Orlando, where he played 67 games for the Magic. They reached the playoffs that season but were bounced in the first round by Baron Davis and the Hornets.

The other big man is...

https://images.daznservices.com/di/library/NBA_Global_CMS_image_storage/ce/dd/hakeem-olajuwon-100118-nba-getty_1fa0u0vwfg2671sg30icvpm7tr.jpg?t=816469326&w=500

The Dream!

Hakeem Olajuwon played 17 seasons with the Houston Rockets, where he crafted his Hall of Fame career. Before he hung 'em up, he played one season in Toronto in 2001-02. He played in 61 games and helped the Raptors reach the playoffs, but only logged 17 minutes per game in the postseason.

Toronto fell to the Detroit Pistons in five games in the first round.

In 2001, Olajuwon wasn't the only NBA legend to make a move to a new team...

https://images.daznservices.com/di/library/NBA_Global_CMS_image_storage/12/85/michael-jordan-10018-nba-getty_g0jdss3pdvvc10e63491n3kdv.jpg?t=816559814&w=500

Just because you remember this doesn't mean it looks right. Michael Jordan spent the final two years of his career as a Washington Wizard, from 2001 to 2003.

Jordan is one of the few guys to make a move late in their career and still bring similar production. He averaged 21.2 points, 5.9 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.5 steals per game in a Wizards uniform, which is absurdly impressive at ages 38 and 39.

Unfortunately, Washington just missed the playoffs in both seasons.

Now, we get to the stars of the late 90s and early 2000s. The year was 2010...

https://images.daznservices.com/di/library/NBA_Global_CMS_image_storage/1f/da/allen-iverson-100118-nba-getty_1lea7dt86ljlw1d1rl2n3d7682.jpg?t=816284686&w=500

After bouncing around from Denver to Detroit, Allen Iverson landed with the Memphis Grizzlies in 2009-10. It didn't last long, though.

A.I. played in three games, refused to come off the bench, then left the team. The whirlwind that was Iverson's career in Memphis landed him a sure-fire spot on this list.

This brings us to another one of the biggest personalities in league history...

https://images.daznservices.com/di/library/NBA_Global_CMS_image_storage/55/b5/shaq-oneal-100118-nba-getty_1nfy0b6g0r4ra11xh03l5ynvv7.jpg?t=816768326&w=500

No, this is not photoshopped, I promise.

Shaquille O'Neal hopped on the back end of the Celtics' Big Three era in 2010-11, hoping to add another banner to the Garden's already-full rafters. Injuries kept Shaq out for the majority of the season, as he only appeared in 37 games.

O'Neal sat out for the entirety of the Celtics' first-round sweep of the Knicks, aiming to make a healthy return for the series against the Miami Heat's Big Three. Shaq was only able to play in two games, and the Celtics lost the series in five games.

One year later, this happened...

https://images.daznservices.com/di/library/NBA_Global_CMS_image_storage/80/d8/tracy-mcgrady-100118-nba-getty_1bq9sikwcg3e91dvjx20y6ux8u.jpg?t=816805326&w=500

Tracy McGrady played his final regular season in Atlanta. It's easy to forget, because the prolific scorer only averaged 5.3 points over 52 games.

The Hawks did make the playoffs that year, but lost to the Celtics in six games in the first round. McGrady played in all six playoff games but only logged 15 minutes per game off the bench.

While McGrady was in Atlanta, this was going on in Los Angeles...

https://images.daznservices.com/di/library/NBA_Global_CMS_image_storage/9a/14/steve-nash-100118-nba-getty_1ar2o1t4829bc1pwqv5sfzrpto.jpg?t=816586878&w=500

Nothing about this picture looks right. This seems to be something that can only happen in NBA 2K.

In the 2012-13 season, the Lakers gave Steve Nash, Dwight Howard and Kobe Bryant a chance at becoming the league's next big three.

Since it didn't work out, it leaves us with confusing photos like this one. Nash played in just 50 games in his first season with the Lakers and 15 games in his second, averaging 11.4 points and 6.4 assists per game over two years. He still nearly shot 50-40-90 in that first season, though!

You might remember this one in 2015...

https://images.daznservices.com/di/library/NBA_Global_CMS_image_storage/bc/d/paul-pierce-100118-nba-getty_qm009lm7vtsm1j223u8bwafxd.jpg?t=816700390&w=500

"Did you call bank? I called game!"

Paul Pierce only played one season with the Wizards, but it was one to remember. He appeared in 73 regular season games and 10 postseason games.

The Wizards swept the Raptors in the first round, only to fall to the Hawks in six games in the second round. With the series tied at 1-1, Pierce hit a game-winner to give the Wizards a 2-1 lead. Later that series, down 3-2 on the brink of elimination, The Truth hit what would have been a game-tying three to force overtime, but time expired before the ball left his hand, leading to defeat.

Even though he had memorable moments there, it doesn't make the jersey look any more normal.

I'll send you off with a star who's set to retire...

https://images.daznservices.com/di/library/NBA_Global_CMS_image_storage/ed/82/dwyane-wade-100118-nba-getty_1gcrmcf2jif2s1utn4x6ge50m0.jpg?t=816837878&w=500

This is fresh in our memory since it was a season ago, but in 20 years we'll be saying "oh yeah, I forgot Wade played for the Cavs for a bit."

What was meant to be a reunion of Dwyane Wade and LeBron's Miami Heat days didn't quite work out. Things were choppy with the team, and Wade felt it was better to return to his true home in the league, Miami.

Wade played in 46 games with the Cavaliers, coming off the bench in all but three of them. At the trade deadline, he was a part of the massive turnover on the Cavs' roster. He finished the season strong with the Heat and the 2018-19 season with Miami will be his last.

A few years down the line, we'll have to remind people that this photo is indeed real, not photoshopped.
