  • Kenyon Martin Retiring

    http://sports.yahoo.com/news/kenyon-...232301908.html

    Martin scored 9,325 points, grabbed 5,159 rebounds and blocked 864 shots in 757 NBA games over 15 seasons. The athletic 6-foot-9 forward made his lone NBA All-Star appearance in 2004, played in the NBA Finals for the New Jersey Nets in 2002 and '03 and was known for catching lob passes from former teammate Jason Kidd. Martin also played for the Denver Nuggets, Los Angeles Clippers, New York Knicks and Milwaukee Bucks from 2000-15.

    "It's been a great 15 years," Martin, 37, told Yahoo Sports. "Thanks to all the fans that supported me over the years. But a time does come when you have to walk away, and the time is now for me. I'm ready for the next chapter of my life. I would like to thank the Nets, Nuggets, Clippers, Knicks and Bucks for the opportunity to play the game that I love.


    ...

    "I have family time and business ahead," Martin said. "And if something coaching comes up [basketball-wise], I will consider it. I'm also getting Kenyon, Jr., ready to be the No. 1 pick in a couple of years."

            If UC does not honor Kenyon at the shoe this year, shame on them. Great read from DeCourcy, link http://www.sportingnews.com/ncaa-bas...o%2FmeDXtnevPJ

              I agree, even if Kenyon doesn't show. Is he still upset over the way the Huggins departure was handled?

                Kenyon Martin reflects on overcoming broken legs, microfracture surgeries and a bad boy persona to forge a 15-year career.

                  I'd really like more info on what's going on here but this seems interesting:




                  @KenyonMartinSr:



                  @PrezOno looking forward to sitting down with you. And getting Bearcat basketball where it needs to be. Thanks for the support
