At 37-years old, Damien Wilkins would be considered a seasoned veteran in basketball. But father time hasn’t stopped him just yet as he is still getting the better of other players nearly half his age. The Charlotte Hornets‘ D-league affiliate in the Greensboro Swarm has benefited from not only his leadership and experience this season but also from his play on the court.
After playing in the NBA for nine seasons with five different franchises, Damien has loads of experience to share with young prospects at the Development League level. Even though he was never a star at the top level of basketball, Wilkins has found a way to not only extend his career into his late-30’s but do so gracefully.
