Stephen Jackson, 38, has been pushing for an NBA comeback.
He’s reportedly getting his chance, though some are refuting this claim.
So happy for Stephen Jackson, who just told me he's going to camp w/the #Warriors this fall to give another shot at playing. @DaTrillStak5

Jackson last played for the Clippers in the 2013-14 season, appearing in just nine games. There were rumors the Warriors were interested in Jackson returning to the team, but in a coaching role.
Jackson spent four seasons with the Warriors from 2006-10. He’s averaged 15.1 points per game in his career. He was famously apart of the 2007 ‘We Believe’ Warriors team that upset the Mavericks in the first round.
It could be a little awkward in training camp. Jackson heavily criticized Kevin Durant for his Game 6 effort in the Western Conference Finals.
