Maybe he felt left out by all of the love that was being shown to Hall of Fame Boston Celtics broadcaster Mike Gorman for his retirement (and more likely he just enjoyed the time off with family). But it seems that there is more than one retirement going down in the wider Celtics world this week.
Blake Griffin elected to call it a career as well this week, announcing his exit from the league via social media. Joe Mazzulla and Al Horford reacted to Griffin announcing his retirement while the Celtics held their first practice ahead of the 2024 NBA Playoffs.
CLNS Media’s Bobby Manning and Josue Pavon talked about the impact Griffin had on Boston in his one season with the team and the hope that he could return on a recent episode of the “Garden Report” podcast.
