Marbury is 40, and was basically cooked by the time he got to the Celtics.

So, doubt it

The Big 3 will be his next move, his NBA days are over.

I just got my hands on a whole bunch of Marbs jerseys with this on the neck. Anyone interested, hit me up. And yes, they're cheap and good quality too..

If there's was actually a notion that Marbury would ever be welcomed back in NY by Dolan I'd say bring him on as an "advisor" or an assistant something or other. I do believe he's a different guy in the head. Problem is the body is likely done for.

I would sign him to a 10-day contract and let him retire a Knick. Nice gesture to a long-time NBA vet. Build some goodwill around the NBA...

One of the worst, most unprofessional, underachieving and embarrassing players in Knicks history.

I enjoyed watching and reading this IG post. Wasn't particularly a fan of his in his Knicks days and the aftermath, but this makes me root for this to go well for him.

He might still be able to play occasionally. He's in shape. No way he could play a whole season anymore though.
