No return to Europe: Nicolas Batum has already decided when he will end his career
In the last few years, Nicolas Batum lived a sort of second youth in his career as an NBA player, accepting and perfecting his role as a role player in a competitive team like the Los Angeles Clippersin both halves.
However, the physical decline, with his 35th birthday just around the corner, is quite evident, and retirement is not far away: the fans know it, and Batum himself has known it for some time. For this reason, while the Frenchman is preparing for his experience with the national team in the FIBA World Cup, in Europe there was talk of a possible return to our continent for the so-called “farewell tour”.
This possibility was rejected by the player’s wife, who in a tweet announced the end of her husband’s career already set in exactly one year.
Nico decided to end his career (NBA and EDF) after the Olympics
So this is his last season with the Clippers.— ???????????????? ????.???????????????????????? (@LilyEBatum) August 14, 2023
Batum’s official intention is therefore to play one last season with the Clippers, in which he will earn the beauty of 11 million dollars, participate in the Paris Olympic Games and then hang up his boots.
