Fisher has 'no steadfast plan' to make NBA comeback
Contrary to earlier reports, former NBA point guard Derek Fisher has no plans to return to the Association.
Fisher teased fans earlier in the week about the possibility of an NBA return, posting a Facebook video of himself training, accompanied with the hashtag "Imnotdoneyet."
However, the 41-year-old quickly put an end to the rumors on Wednesday, tweeting that while he is willing to listen to offers from NBA teams, he's not targeting a comeback at present.
If an NBA team expresses interest, I'm open to dialogue, but at the moment I have no steadfast plan to play again. (2/2)

Fisher last played during the 2013-14 season, suiting up in 81 games for the Oklahoma City Thunder. The five-time champion spent a season and a half as the head coach of the New York Knicks following his retirement, but was ultimately let go in February and replaced with interim Kurt Rambis.
Fisher spent time with the Los Angeles Lakers, Golden State Warriors, Utah Jazz, Dallas Mavericks and Thunder over 18 pro seasons. Should Fisher ultimately return to the NBA, he would become the oldest player in the league.
