The veteran still gallops wildly and immortally, Zhandu, Paul, Megatron, only 14 people left in the pre-09 draft

TheNBACentral updated the update and posted a photo to share with fans, and wrote, "Starting camp this month, these players are still free..."

Among them, Westbrook, Simmons, Grimes, Kumingga and Gidey have not signed any team so far, and Westbrook has been in the league for 17 seasons. He is not only the triple-double king in NBA history, but also the player ranked first in the total rebounding range as a guard since 2000.

With the gradual decline of veterans, yesterday the US media posted various data of veterans who entered the league in the 2009 pre-draft draft and are still struggling to fight on the court. The oldest player in the league who is still on the court is James. In 2003, James entered the league as the No. 1 pick. It has been 22 seasons so far. He is also preparing to start his 23rd new season. In his career, James won four championships, winning 4 FMVPs, 4 MVPs, 21st Best Team, 21st All-Stars, 75th All-Stars, etc., and has maintained countless records. Now the league and fans are paying attention to his specific retirement time. There is only one person left in the 2005 draft. Chris Paul, former Queen Bee, one of the best point guards in the league. He has been selected for the 11th All-Stars, the 9th All-Stars, the 5th Assistant King, the 6th Stealer King, and the 75th All-Star. Unfortunately, Paul still has no champion in hand. There are currently two left in the 2006 draft, Lowry and Tucker. Tucker won the championship with the Bucks in 2021 and is gradually fading out of the league. Lowry joined hands with Leonard in the 2018-19 season to win the first championship trophy in team history for Toronto. The players in the 2007 draft are still shining in the league, including Durant, Conley, Horford, and Jeff Green. Among these four, Conley has no championship ring, although he has been infinitely close in the 23-24 season.

The 2008 draft has retained the most, with the six, namely Westbrook, Love, Eric Gordon, Lopez, "France Pipombatum" and Jordan Jr.

Love once defeated the Warriors in the 16-17 season, and won the championship trophy with James and Irving. Lopez, the Big Big, won the championship with Antetokounmpo in the 2021-22 season. Jordan Jr. won the championship with the Nuggets in 23 years, while the other three are still working hard for the championship.

The veterans are still galloping around, but now they don’t have much time left for them on the field. For fans, there is not much time to continue to appreciate their figures on the field. To put it in the old saying: Let’s cherish it!
