Chris Bosh is looking to expand his portfolio.

The former Miami Heat and Toronto Raptors big man told TMZ Sports that he plans to focus on acting, among other things, once he officially retires from the NBA next month.

"It was just time, man," Bosh said about his decision to retire. "Time to do other things. Maybe be in some movies or something."

When asked if he's been taking acting classes, Bosh replied, "Yeah man, acting. Music. The whole nine, bro."

Bosh has already made cameos on several television shows, including "Entourage," "Parks and Recreation," and "The Odd Couple." He also plays guitar.

The 34-year-old will retire when the Heat raise his No. 1 jersey to the rafters of AmericanAirlines Arena on March 26.
