Wembanyama's appearance has made fans look forward to the Spurs. After all, such a talented champion Xiu once led the Spurs to create a dynasty. He is Tim Duncan, a legendary star of the Spurs, and he also made his debut as a champion that year. However, unlike Wembanyama, Duncan is a superstar who has been at the top of his debut since his debut. Before you know it, Duncan has also been retired for many years. He rarely appears in a low-key manner, and now he is 47 years old with gray hair, and he is very happy in love with his young and old, and he retires to enjoy life.
In the summer of 2016, many big events happened in the NBA, first of all, the Warriors created the all-time No. 1 record of 73-9, and then Kobe Bryant's classic retirement game. Then the Cavaliers in the Finals achieved a shocking comeback after trailing the Warriors 1-3. It was also in that summer that Kobe, Duncan and Garnett, three NBA faces, officially retired.

He played 61 games with the Spurs that year and averaged 86 points 73 rebounds and 2With 7 assists, both offensive and defensive ends have dropped significantly. scored less than 10 points, and it is indeed time to retire, with Duncan's strength and status, there is no need to play as a substitute.
At that time, many fans felt sorry because the Spurs team was very strong.

After retiring, Duncan hasn't stayed away from the Spurs, and he often returns to the team to coach young players in technology and mingle with the staff. He would also party with Ginobili, Parker and others, and his life was very chic. Interestingly, he was very dull and low-key when he was a player, but he was much more chic after retiring. Duncan tried many sports, swimming, climbing, running, boxing, cycling, etc., and was still full of tendons. Not only that, but he also grew long hair and dreadlocks, which surprised many fans, and at the same time opened a modified car dealership and completely enjoyed life.

His first wife not only cheated on him, but also took away a sum of his money. Now he is married to a younger and more beautiful Vanessa, Vanessa is a star in the entertainment industry, with exquisite facial features, a hot body, and is also very good to Duncan. used to be a loyal fan of Duncan, and now he takes care of his family in good order.
