COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Former Ohio State basketball player Aaron Craft will reportedly be playing his final basketball season as a professional.<\/p>\n
According to the Italian magazine Corriere della Sera, Craft will retire at the end of the EuroLeague season and will begin medical school at Ohio State. He currently plays for Trento, where he has competed in both the Euro Cup and the Lega Basket Serie A league in Italy. He has career averages of 8.5 points and 4.3 assists while playing for five teams since 2015.<\/p>\n
The passion for medicine is something I have cultivated since I was a child, Craft said, after translation. \"At the end of my life I want to be more than a player who has chased a ball. My goal is to help others and serve the society in which I live.<\/p>\n
