[Basketball]: Barely landed in Brooklyn, #lamarcus Aldridge announces this Thursday that he is #retiring. Seven-time All Star, the 35-year-old strong winger made the decision due to an #irregular #heartbeat in his 15th season in the NBA. “For 15 years I put basketball first, but now it's time to put my heart and my #family first,” he said on social media. A move obviously "supported" by the Nets, "his #health and well-being being much more important than #basketball," as the GM of the New York franchise, Sean Marks.
