look at who's gone:
2026 170 Supersonics SF Quincy Peters retires
2026 170 Raptors PG Eddie Crawford retires
2026 170 Bucks PF Patrick Kent retires
2026 170 Trailblazers PG Alphonse Butler retires
2026 170 Nuggets SF Caleb Anderson retires
2026 170 Spurs C Steven Schmaltz retires
2026 170 Trailblazers C James Clardy retires
2026 170 Grizzlies PG Maximiano Gutierrez retires
2026 170 Nuggets C John Tyler retires

lot's of former Celtics, including franchise guy Tyler.

and now look who DIDN'T hang up his sneakers for good:
Eddie Uner, now 39 !!!
Dwight Howard, Bertram Shultz now 38 ... Dwight is in season #22 and the last guy from the original league file (which i think he's been for the past 5 seasons) and big props to Bertram for first killing the Pacers playoffs by going down, and now killing their next season as well keeping them from having 14 mill cap space for FA. Thats when you hold onto such guys too long (or simply are to cheap to buy them out) ...
Juan Ward, now 38 ... and still in the league. Amazing
Carlos Tower ... my discovery Carlos. After a +4 first TC I remember convincing Ivan to pick him up for me since my roster was at 15 (as it always is) until a spot opened. And boy did he improve his ratings from C C C C+ D to C- B+ B+ A C-, a total of +14 net ratings. Too bad he never really reached stardom.
And at 36 a bunch with Celtics ties: Everette Strait, Lincoln Lord (now entering the 16th season, will he EVER stop?), Jim Finley, Quentin Brand, Bennett Fuqua.

 Cool

Two of the starters on the Championship Raptors team of old. Sad to see Max go, he was the best Raptors PG of all time.

Mad Max was one of the better PG's in the league for quite a while...
Ivan chose him accidentally, if I remember, and then he blew up in TC...
