Eduardo Najera, a 12-year NBA veteran, announced his retirement on Tuesday. Najera's playing days are over, but he'll immediately transition into a new role as the head coach and part owner of the Texas Legends in the D-League.

Najera is about as beat up as anybody in the association and has no fantasy value.
