Former Kansas guard Keith Langford, who recently signed a two-year contract extension with Russian professional team UNICS Kazan, envisions playing basketball for many years to come.
“I’ve gone back and forth and after all the scenarios I’ve replayed in my head that would involve retiring, I’ve come to the conclusion that I will play as long as my body can do what my mind asks,” said Langford, KU’s seventh-leading career scorer, who turns 33 on Sept. 15.
“When I feel that connection no longer exists, I’m done. The game has been so good to me, the worst thing I could do is be one of those guys holding on when I know it’s over.
