Update: After putting up a season-high 26 points on Wednesday night against Milwaukee, Van Exel announced that he will retire at the end of the season, The Oregonian reports.
Recommendation: Everybody will miss Van Exel's big shots and excessive shooting. "It's done; it's a wrap," Van Exel said. "This will be my last season. I've been thinking about it for a while over these past couple months. Just getting up every morning, my body always aching -- knees, back, hip -- it just gets boring after a while." A 12-year veteran, the 33-year-old Van Exel is in the last year of his contract that will pay him $11.8 million.
