American basketball player Chandler Parsons ended his professional career because he failed to recover from a serious injury he suffered in a car accident.
That was his final decision, reports Shams Charania, a well-informed journalist of “The Athletic”.
– It’s been crazy the last few years. I have had many ups and downs and I am grateful for each of them. All my life I wanted to become an NBA basketball player and I can proudly say that I succeeded in that. It was not brilliant, but it was a blessing – Parsons wrote.
Exactly two years ago, on that fateful January 15, the Atlanta Hawks basketball player, neither guilty nor guilty, was hit by a car by an alcoholic driver and suffered serious head injuries. He received a lawsuit in court and a large sum of money due to a car accident he suffered.
The then experienced 31-year-old Parsons played his 10th anniversary season in the NBA League, averaging 12.7 points per game.
Parsons is a former student at the University of Florida, and he started his professional career in the French Cholet in 2011, for which he played three games during the lockout. He moved to the NBA immediately after you, when the Rockies chose him for the 38th draft pick. In addition to Houston, he also played for Dallas, Memphis, and Atlanta.
