I was like holy , Larry Hughes still plays? I found a couple others that I was surprised to find out are still in the league.
Larry Hughes, Orlando Magic.
Shaun Livingston, Milwaukee Bucks.
Luke Harangody, Cleveland Cavaliers.
Other players you're surprised to realize are still playing in the NBA?

Don't know why you're surprised at Harangody. He's only been in the league a year, and he's 6'7". There's usually at least one team willing to give those types of guys a chance to work out.
6'7 power forward with underwhelming athleticism.
I'm surprised he's lasted this long with basically his best attribute being hitting a jumpshot, and yet he's only shooting 25% from three point range in his career.
Yup, surprising.
edit: I did think this was his 3rd or 4th season. Didn't realize it was his 2nd season in the league. So that's my bad. I don't think he's long for the league.
Derek Fisher
You probably thought it was his third because the C's traded him last year to the Cavs with Semih Erden for pennies (2nd rnd pick I believe). Fwiw, I liked Erden, but the J O'Neal and Brandon Bass are admittedly better bigs.
you're not alone
Brian Cook.
Spent his entire time with the Lakers during the unrigged years 2003/4-2008*.
*midseason
Team?
This one is the most surprising to me.
Without looking it up, Stack plays for the Hawks I believe.
I guess I wouldn't say I'm that surprised he's in the league, but I had no idea Tracy McGrady was on the Hawks now.

Looks like the only fat he lost was in his head.
Sean Marks would have run away with this thread if he hadn't gone corporate.

Getty Images Because they needed another guard off the bench… wait, no they didn’t, but the Golden State Warriors may be adding one anyway.
The Warriors are close to signing Nate Robinson, according to Marcus Thompson of the Contra Costa Times. He said the signing may happen Wednesday and Robinson could be in uniform by the weekend. This will be a one-year, $1 million deal, reports Sam Amick of Sports Illustrated.
We’ll see how much run Robinson gets. Obviously, Stephen Curry and Monta Ellis are your starting guards for Golden State and soak up most of the minutes. After that you have Dorell Wright as a swingman taking up a lot of minutes, then rookie Klay Thompson (who needs to get some burn so he improves and you see what you’ve really got). Then it’s Ishmael Smith and… now Nate. He’ll play the point but he’s a scoring point first, second and often third.
Robinson will bring Golden State energy off the bench and some nights a lot of points as well. But he is inconsistent, inefficient and not a great defender — there is a reason he barely got off the pine for the Thunder last season. (To be fair, he got some playoff minutes with Boston the season before.) In Golden State it’s an interesting fit, but if they want energy and someone the crowd will love, they found it.
