"My body knows it's time to say goodbye" wrote
five-time NBA champion Kobe Bryant as he poetically announced his intention to
retire at the end of the season.
During a 20-year career with the LA Lakers, the
37-year-old has scored 32,683 points, though in recent seasons his form has
been hindered by injury.
Bryant signaled his plan to retire in a poem on the
Players' Tribune website, later telling the media he felt "at peace"
with his decision and "excited for what's to come."
Ranked third on the NBA's all-time scorers list, the
two-time Olympic gold medalist averaged more than 25 points in his 1,293 NBA
games.
