Grant Hill 'Not Even Close' to Retiring

Filed under: , , ,

Grant HillORLANDO, Fla. -- There are times when a graying Grant Hill wonders why he's still chasing kids -- some literally half his age -- through screens, battling them for rebounds, and taking charges from bruisers that make him ache the next day.

Then he answers himself:

Because he still can. And he still can do it surprisingly well. And he feels great.

Hill, at age 38, has given himself an extension on a basketball career that almost ended years ago, reaping the benefits now of the seasons he lost in his prime.

Anyone waiting for his pre-retirement tour around the league, and his expected start in politics, better prepare to wait a lot longer. There are too many career milestones out there awaiting him.

Hill is the third-oldest player in NBA today, trailing Shaquille O'Neal in Boston and Kurt Thomas in Chicago (who both also are 38), but he likely will outlast the other two.
