Tony Parker Announces Retirement After 18-Year NBA Career

Six-time NBA All-Star point guard Tony Parker has retired following an 18-year career, he told ESPN's The Undefeated.

Parker, 37, won four NBA titles (all with the San Antonio Spurs) and was named to four All-NBA teams. He spent the first 17 seasons of his career with the Spurs prior to spending the past year with the Charlotte Hornets.

"A lot of different stuff [brought me to make this decision]," Parker said. "But, at the end of the day, I was like, if I can't be Tony Parker anymore and I can't play for a championship, then I don't want to play basketball anymore.
