It seems as though the only thing the 16-year NBA veteran needed before he could call it quits was a championship, and after the Cavaliers' Game 7 victory Sunday, Jefferson wasted no time announcing that his time in the league was done. After playing a crucial role for Cleveland down the final stretch of the 2016 playoffs, the 35-year-old leaves the NBA with career averages of 13.3 points and 4.2 rebounds per game.
