Allan Houston to Retire.

Two-time All-Star Allan Houston is to announce his retirement from the Knicks at an afternoon news conference Monday.

Houston, who appeared in just 70 games over the past two seasons due to chronic knee pain, wanted to test his knee in training camp this year before deciding whether to retire. The shooting guard wasn’t participating in the full workload of two-a-days his teammates were running, but had been encouraged by early results.

He was to earn $40 million over the final two years of his contract. Houston was the last player remaining from the Knicks’ team that reached the NBA Finals in 1999. - ESPN

This is not a joke…
