Robert Jaworski of Philippines' Ginebra franchise retired from active pro basketball at age 52

I agree on this one!

I think Grant Hill now qualifies for the thread, he just turned 38 and still out there making damage

If that's the case then you should add Shaq to the list as well since he turned 38 last March

37 year old Dallas Mavericks (NBA) guard Jason Kidd will turn 38 in March 23, 2011 and he has expressed willingess to play until the age of 40 and beyond. On an interview, he was quoted:

"I would love to follow in those footsteps,'' (Kidd said in an interview with FanHouse about being as effective at that age as Stockton, who averaged 13.8 points in the season he hit 40 and 10.8 and 7.8 assists in his final season of 2002-03 after turning 41.) "He's the best. If I could come close to doing what he did at his age, I would be very happy.''

"It's all on the ground,'' (Kidd said of his game.) "So I just try to anticipate and use my wisdom against the younger guys. If I can do that until I'm 40, 41, that'd be a great accomplishment. ... As long as Cuban has a job for me, I would love to (play past 40). Mentally and physically, if I can keep going, if I can be where I am today, I think I can do it.''

Barring serious or nagging injuries, Kidd is in terrific shape and he could realize that dream.
