Rip Hamilton called it a career today, officially announcing his retirement from the NBA on ESPN’s His and Hers. And he did it the way he spent most of the last 16 years: wearing Air Jordans.
Unlike how he usually rocked them, however — y’know, on his feet — Rip draped a pair of Just Don x Air Jordan 2’s around his neck for the farewell television appearance, ensuring that his goodbye will be as synonymous with Jordans as most of his playing years were.
Check out the full video clip below, along with a behind-the-scenes look. Bittersweet week for pro athlete-sneakerheads, no?
