Bruce Bowen is looking for work after being let go by the Los Angeles Clippers for criticizing Kawhi Leonard. The former Clippers television analyst should be able to land on his feet though.
The San Antonio Spur great was recently offered a job by the San Antonio Zoo. Bowen gladly accepted his new role with the zoo!

Obviously, this is a joke, but there's no doubt that Bowen will land on his feet somewhere. Bowen was let go for his criticism of Kawhi Leonard — a player whom the Clippers hope to target in the offseason. Los Angeles was within their rights to part ways Bowen because he was an employee of the organization, but someone out there will want to bring in an analyst that speaks his mind.
Bowen wasn't afraid to criticize Leonard and he's always been known as a straight shooter. Of course, he won't seriously start working for the San Antonio Zoo, but maybe the Spurs have an opening for Bowen.
Bowen won three championships during his tenure in San Antonio and he was a key piece on each of those teams. Bowen was named to eight All-Defensive teams and his ability to lock down every team's best perimeter player was a vital part of the Spurs' success.
Despite never averaging double-figures in his career, Bowen flourished in the league for his ability to take to his role and do it better than anyone else.
Bowen is outspoken as an analyst, but he shouldn't be going away anytime soon.
