Former Florida forward Matt Bonner announced his retirement from the NBA after more than a decade in the league on Friday — but the way he did it, with a public access television-spoofing YouTube video that is equal parts sweet and self-deprecating, is so authentically Bonner that it hurts.
Note that Bonner a) still has his old Florida jersey and b) still fits his old Florida jersey.
Bonner played at Florida from 1999 to 2003, featuring on Billy Donovan’s first Final Four team in his freshman season and leaving the school as a first-team All-SEC selection in his senior year and an honors graduate who was a two-time Academic All-American.
