LaMarcus Aldridge is “seriously considering” a return to the NBA after retiring in the middle of last season due to an ongoing heart condition. The report comes from Adrian Wojnarowski, who tweeted the news this afternoon, citing ESPN sources.
Per Woj:
After medical consultation, seven-time All-Star F LaMarcus Aldridge is seriously considering a return to the NBA this season. Aldridge retired with Brooklyn in mid-April with heart concerns, but is exploring the possibility of resuming his 15-year career.
Aldridge ultimately needs team medical clearance to sign a contract to play and is expected to have conversations with individual teams in the coming weeks, per sources.
