Stoudemire spent 14 seasons in the NBA, including eight with the Phoenix Suns and four with the New York Knicks, as well as shorter stints with the Dallas Mavericks and Miami Heat during his final two seasons, before announcing his official retirement from the league in 2016. He recorded 15,994 (18.9 ppg), 6,632 rebounds (7.8 rpg) and 1,054 (1.2 bpg) and won a bronze medal for Team U.S.A. in the 2004 Olympics.
