Eight players who may retire tomorrow: Paul and Batum have become inevitable, and the 2007th generation of the two players are also on the list

2:29pm, 3 September 2025【Basketball】

In this offseason, John Wall announced his retirement. He actually had no ball to play in the past few seasons. He kept trying to return to the league but failed. In the end, he chose to leave with a heart of silence. In every offseason, players will choose to retire. Speaking of this, let’s take a look at the 8 players who may retire tomorrow summer. Many familiar veterans may be leaving, and they are indeed a little reluctant to leave.

James

James did not get a contract during the offseason. Although he has not yet made it clear whether he will retire next season, one thing is certain that James will be 41 years old after playing next season. Although he still has the ability to play in the NBA, can he accept his performance as a role player? At this age, he may lose his peak in a sudden day. Isn’t that the case with Paul? In the Suns period, he was still the star level, and then he joined the Warriors and then fell sharply. Even if he didn't leave next season, I think James can't play for a few years.

Paul

Paul is now 40 years old. Paul said in an interview that next season is the last season of his career. His family already hopes that he will return to his family. Because of his love, he has played for this year. But because of his family, he chose the Clippers close to home and gave up the starting position he has been pursuing. Lao Pao’s goal this season is to win the championship. He will be Harden’s substitute, and his performance will also affect the height that the Clippers will eventually reach. This season’s Clippers really have a chance to win the championship. I hope Lao Pao can realize his dream.

Lowry

Lowry returned to the 76ers in the offseason with a one-year contract. Now Lowry has basically no ability to play in the NBA. He is just stumbling around now. If someone gives me a contract, I will sign it, and if I don't, I will lose it. So Lowry picked up a contract in the offseason. Lowry played very few due to injuries last season. Under such circumstances, if he still performs in the past two years next season, he will probably fall to the point where he has no ball to play and is eventually forced to retire. It is time for him to enjoy his life. The number one player in the Raptors' history is worth it.

Godor

Godor is now 36 years old, and he also got a basic salary contract for the 76ers. Gordon is now helping the team less and less. He used to have three-pointers and defense, but now three-pointers are unstable. The defense is also because of slowing down. It is estimated that it will be difficult for him to find his next player next season. Relying on players who rely on absolute ball rights to play, it is now very inefficient. It is estimated that it will be difficult to get more ball rights. Moreover, the 76ers still have so many backcourt talents. Why do they sign Lowry and Gordon for? Do you give them retirement?

Horford

Horford has not signed a contract yet. It is reported that he has reached an oral agreement with the Warriors. Both parties will sign a contract after the matter of Kumingga is completed. It is reported that this is a two-year contract, and the second year is the player option. If the Warriors said they would start for him and were expected to win the championship, Horford wanted to retire this summer. It is estimated that he would consider whether to retire after playing next season. If the record is ideal, he might not mind playing for another year, but if the record is not ideal, Horford might choose to return to his family.

Batum

Batum also said in an interview that he will be his last year next season. He has worked with the Clippers well before. Tyron Lu trusts him very much and will give him enough playing time. This is what a veteran wants. Therefore, Batum has also returned to the Clippers. His playing time may not be that much in the new season. After all, the Clippers' current lineup is very strong. Batum is also 36 years old. The Clippers' lineup is a bit old in the new season, but they all have the heart to compete for the championship, and they are also worth looking forward to.

Jeff Green

He and Horford are both in the 2007. Jeff Green signed with the Rockets with a basic salary this offseason. He probably won't get too much playing time if he stays in the team. He probably plays more as a locker room leader. With Durant's arrival, he and Durant are former teammates, so he got this contract. Tomorrow Xia probably has no ball to play. Of course, he is also at the age of retirement. He has earned 100 million in his career and is very successful. However, the other two Conley and Durant in the 2007 will probably still work hard in the league.

Westbrook

Westbrook may be surprised to see this name. Westbrook has not been signed yet. Although he performed well last season, according to the current situation, Westbrook is likely to have to wait until the start of the regular season. If he is signed in this way, he will probably not get too many opportunities. He may fall into the result of being forced to retire. It can be said that the years between the Clippers and the Lakers have ruined Westbrook's reputation. Even though he played well in the Nuggets, he still has not been recognized and cannot find a suitable next player now.
