Sports Take: Some NBA players should jump ship for the sake of their legacy

By Gio Gennero | Sports Writer

Basketball is a team game, no doubt about it. Sometimes, no matter how good an individual player is, not being on the right team or in the right situation will limit their potential and legacy. As players get older, they can’t be carrying teams to bottom-playoff seeds just to get bounced early and never be true contenders. Sometimes they need a change of scenery. It might hurt their legacy a bit for “ring chasing,” but not as much as it will hurt if they end up without a championship on their resume.
