One NBA Star Considering Retirement?

New York: Reporters were informed Wednesday that Tracy McGrady might retire. The former Western Conference All-Star reported Wednesday that if he does not regain his form from the past, he might have to end his career. McGrady has only played in 65 games within the last two seasons due to major injuries and micro fracture surgery on his knee. Tracy averaged just over eight points a game during this short season.

McGrady was traded from the Houston Rockets to the New York Knicks in a 3-way blockbuster deal that included the Sacramento Kings.

The swingman for the Knicks will become a free agent this summer. The question is who will take him? I don’t think many teams would want to invest in a injured Tracy McGrady but, here are the top 3 teams that might have an interest in T-Mac this summer.

1) New York Knicks: McGrady already said he would love to take less money to return to New York if he would play alongside of one of the league’s best players. Well we all know the Knicks have the money to bring in a superstar into their organization so, why not bring in T-Mac if he is able to regain the skills the all-star once had. I believe New York would be the perfect fit for a healthy McGrady.

2) Chicago Bulls:  Bulls would be a perfect fit for McGrady. T-Mac playing alongside Derrick Rose? This would make one hell of a team for Chicago. Who knows who else they will pick up but even just Rose, Noah and T-Mac, that’s a playoff team already.

3) New Jersey Nets: Even though the Nets have plenty of cap room, they don’t have many players on the roster for next year. I believe the Nets might sign McGrady late in the summer to fill the roster. He would be a very good 6th man for them. I see a bright future in Newark.
