After 15 seasons as a force in the NBA Sam Cassell has retired to assume assistant coaching duties with the Washington Wizards.
Known for his clutch shooting and helping the Houston Rockets win two titles in the 90's, Sam played for his share of teams: Milwaukee, New Jersey, Minnesota. He was traded from the Timberwolves to the Los Angeles Clippers during the 05-06. There he contributed to the Clippers run towards the playoffs. The Clippers would end up losing that series to the Phoenix Suns just a game shy of the Western Conference Finals. After a couple of bumpy seasons with the Clippers we was sent mid season to the Boston Celtics where coming off the bench, Sam hit a few clutch shots to help the Celtics win the NBA Championship.
Eminent for his leadership on and off the court, it's only natural that Sam move on and pursue his passion.
Good Luck Sammy-Sam!
