Chris Webber announced his retirement from the NBA on Wednesday, bowing to a knee injury that cut short his comeback attempt with the Golden State Warriors.
"I really didn't want to rehab and come back this season because I don't think that was possible," Webber said. "Plus, because the way the team is playing, the chemistry is great with these guys, they're on a roll. I feel like they're going to win, they have a great chance to go very far in the playoffs.
