RICHARD JEFFERSON RETIRING AFTER 15 YEARS IN NBA

Richard Jefferson announced his retirement, saying he will write essays, but many believe he will join his good friend Luke Walton as part of Walton’s staff with the Lakers.

Jefferson sums up his basketball career and his respect for LeBron James eloquently.

Jefferson would be top notch describing the action and the players. Move over Grant Hill or Chris Webber if this ever happens.

Jefferson could become a writer (not much money in that though) …

People who claim they are in the know saying Jefferson “likely” to join Walton’s staff as a defensive specialist. …

His teammates are trying to talk him out of retirement. …

Frye was a midseason pick up who helped the Cavs in their late-season push.
