POWERFUL: #Browns rookie WR KC Concepcion has battled a stutter his entire life but he still makes it a point to speak with the media after every game.
KC continues to show incredible courage and is an inspiration to everyone who struggles with a stutter.
🎙️ Grayson Allen: "I'm not concerned with winning anybody over. I play hard, I play with heart, and I really want this team to be successful and win. I'm willing to do less, do more, whatever is asked of me to help the team win. And I think after a while, people appreciate that."
Today is a very emotional day for me.
After 17 seasons in the NBA, I can honestly say I gave this game everything I had.
Basketball gave me the opportunity to live a dream. As a kid from Brooklyn, NY, I was lucky to get a chance to display my talent on the biggest stage. From Fort Greene Projects to USC, to the Chicago Bulls , and every team and city that came after, I’m grateful for every moment, every teammate, every coach, and every person who believed in me.
I wanted to be the guy my teammates could count on someone who brought toughness, energy, leadership, and heart every time I stepped on the court.
To my family, my friends, my teammates, my coaches, my agent, the NBA , NBPA and the fans, thank you. You were all a part of this journey.
But this isn’t goodbye to Basketball. It’s the beginning of a new chapter.
After 31 years of basketball, I can walk away with no regrets, knowing I left everything on the floor. God has truly blessed me.
Thank you Basketball ❤️🩹
"All love 704 it's been real 🤞🏽🤞🏽"
