Jamal Crawford has seen success in his basketball career, as the player shifted culture within the NBA and outside of the league with his skills. Crawford became known for being a clutch player who could always guarantee a bucket and deliver a vicious crossover that has been the subject of numerous highlights throughout his career. Crawford's last NBA game found him suiting up for the Brooklyn Nets in 2020 and ultimately playing his own league. Now, Crawford has taken to social media to reveal he is stepping away from basketball for good.
The legendary player hopped on Twitter following his 42nd birthday to deliver the message of his departure from the game. “Goodbye to the game, all the spoils the adrenaline rush,” said Crawford. He noted he would be rounding out his days by spending time with family, saying, “Thank you, basketball, I owe you everything.” It’s clear Crawford is ready to move, as his Twitter biography says, “I love basketball, but basketball doesn’t define me.” Take a look above.
