Tracy McGrady Bids The League Adieu

It seems like only yesterday when the Toronto Raptors took a chance on a high school kid from Mount Zion Christian Academy named . In fact it’s been 15 years long years since Vince Carter’s cousin entered the league and now the two-time scoring champ and former all-star is taking his game to China.

In a heartfelt goodbye post on his Facebook page, T-Mac reflected on his time in the league and spoke about his new road ahead.

“There are times in life that a new road presents itself and it appears this time has come for me now. I am so proud of what I have accomplished these past 15 years playing in the NBA. It was a dream entering the league as I just turned 18 years old. I worked hard and poured my heart and soul into this game. I consider myself a student of the game as I have watched, studied and played with and against the best players in the world. The NBA was my University and I learned so much. The gratitude I feel is really immeasurable. I have experienced the best moments a player can experience and have had some dark ones too. Both equally important in helping shape me into the man I am today.”
