Lakers' Steve Nash admits playing career likely over

Lakers veteran point guard Steve Nash all but officially admitted that his basketball career is over during a Tuesday appearance on The Bro Jake Show on TSN Radio 1040 Vancouver.

During his appearance, the two-time MVP and eight-time All-Star addressed his failed attempt to return, hinting that retirement was likely near.

"Unfortunately, the NBA game is just a touch too far for me. I play one game and I’m out for up to a month, and that nerve — I have a bunch of back things going on that compromise that nerve," Nash said.
