Cincinnati Bearcats legend Kenyon Martin has announced his retirement from the NBA. This is truly a bittersweet day for UC basketball.
K-Mart was of course the highest rated player to be drafted in the NBA, as he went number one overall to the New Jersey Nets in 2000. He spent four seasons there before being traded to the Denver Nuggets where he spent the majority of his career before bouncing around to the Los Angeles Clippers, New York Knicks, Milwaukee Bucks, and even did a stint in China.
15 years later Martin announced his retirement from the NBA and the game lost a star.
