The good news is that he’s going out on his own terms. The bad news is that he’s only 34 and hasn’t been himself in about 4-5 years. Either way, Tracy McGrady knows when it’s time to give it up. Yesterday on ESPN’s First Take, McGrady announced that he is stepping away from the NBA. This is probably for the best as it was tough to watch him only get garbage minutes during the NBA Finals.
An interesting debate, however, will be if he is HOF worthy. If you ask me right now, I say he barely makes it.
Leaving open the door to play overseas, seven-time All-Star Tracy McGrady retired from the NBA on Monday.
“It’s been 16 years playing the game I love. I’ve had a great run, but it’s time for it to come to an end,” McGrady said on ESPN’s “First Take.”
