ORLANDO, Fla. (AP)?Adonal Foyle(notes) is ending his NBA playing career after 13
seasons.
The 35-year-old center announced his retirement Monday after playing for the
Orlando Magic the last three seasons. Foyle spent his first 10 years with the
Golden State Warriors, and had a brief midseason stint with Memphis in 2009.
Foyle is expected to resign from his position as first vice president of the
National Basketball Players Association this week. He averaged 4.1 points and
4.7 rebounds for his career.
The Magic touted Foyle as a great mentor for center Dwight Howard(notes). But a
right-knee injury often kept the former Colgate star from practicing last
season.
Foyle also was inducted into the Sports Humanitarian Hall of Fame for
charitable work with his Kerosene Lamp Foundation.
