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.
