Netlinked 11/9/12: Mehmet Okur, A Net For 17 Games, Retires
Mehmet Okur, a 6'11'' Turkish center who spent last season with the Nets, has retired from the NBA after playing in the league for 10 season. Okur played the first two seasons of his career in Detroit with the Pistons, then signed with the Jazz, where he played nine seasons, and then was traded to the Nets just before last season began.
