Because in the end when you lose somebody every prayer every candle is not gonna make up for the fact that the only thing that you have left is a hole in your life where that somebody that you cared about used to be.
BREAKING: Future Hall of Famer Chris Paul — a 12-time All-Star — has announced his retirement from the NBA after 21 seasons 🚨
“This is it! After over 21 years I’m stepping away from basketball. As I write this, it’s hard to really know what to feel, but for once - most people would be surprised - I don’t have the answer lol!
But, mostly I’m filled with so much joy and gratitude! While this chapter of being an “NBA player” is done, the game of basketball will forever be engrained in the DNA of my life. I’ve been in the NBA for more than half of my life, spanning three decades. It’s crazy even saying that!! Playing basketball for a living has been an unbelievable blessing that also came with lots of responsibility. I embraced it all.”
