Life after the NBA 

Post#1 » by rapluva » Mon Feb 18, 2019 2:10 pm



After watching Danny Green above.. it does look like he will be doing this after his basketball carer is done. What do you think other Raptor players will pick after their b-ball career is done?

I'm really falling hard for Danny. I do hope he sticks around. Would be nice to have better ex-raptor on air representation than Jalen.

Lowry will coach. Not necessarily at the NBA level. I think college more likely.

Serge will commit fully to his Mufuzzy Chef persona. More "How Hungry Are You?" videos but maybe with some more Q&A content like Hot Ones or something. I expect a ghost written cookbook.

Gasol moves back to Spain to spend time with family. He might pop up during EuroLeague playoffs with analysis and perhaps an NBA All-Star event celebrating the best international players in the history of the game.

Lin will maintain his role as an ambassador for Asian-American athletes. He will start a non-profit foundation that promotes inclusion in sport (with respect to all forms of discrimination) and will continue to work to break stereotypes about Asian-American athletes.

We know Green will go into some form of broadcasting or journalism.

Kawhi's "Game speaks for itself" New Balance campaign is going to solidly embed itself in urban/youth sports culture. The seminal moment will come when Kawhi is asked "What is it about this team that let you win against all odds?" and he answers "Game speaks for itself".......while being interviewed after Game 6 of the Finals where Toronto upsets the Warriors 4-2 later this year.

Danny has a future in broadcasting if he wants to. I found him decent to listen to doing the commentary for the rookie game.
