Stoudemire, 35, retired from the NBA in 2016 after a down season with the
Miami Heat. He returned to the Knicks on a one-day contract before announcing
his retirement.
He continued his career overseas in Israel, playing the 2016-17 season for
Hapoel Jerusalem, a team he co-owned.
When asked during an interview on "The Michael Kay Show" on ESPN 98.7 FM if he
was considering an NBA comeback, Stoudemire replied, "That would be reality."
Stoudemire, a six-time NBA All-Star, averaged 18.9 points and 7.8 rebounds in
846 career games across his 14-year NBA career. He played for the Suns
(2002-10), Knicks (2010-15), Dallas Mavericks (2015) and Heat (2015-16).
Stoudemire was the 2003 NBA Rookie of the Year after being selected ninth in
the 2002 draft by the Suns out of an Orlando, Fla., high school.
