Marcus Hatten doesn’t plan to take it easy after announcing his retirement from professional basketball after almost 15 seasons earlier this month.
Physically, he believes he was ready to play another three full seasons. He averaged more than nine points and over four assists this past season for Mitteldeutscher BC in Germany’s Bundesliga.
Mentally, Hatten had other plans in mind.
“My purpose was different,” Hatten said in a recent phone interview with the Torch. “I wanted to get out and help the youth.
As far as what he has in mind for helping the newest generation of basketball players, Hatten has a wide variety of plans.
