Spurs coaching job awaits retiring Sean Marks

New Zealand's most successful basketball export Sean Marks has announced the end of his playing career after eleven seasons and 230 games in the NBA.

The 36-year-old was the first Kiwi to play in the American competition, considered the sport's toughest league, and it included stints for six different teams and a title with the San Antonio Spurs in 2005. 

He will now take up an off-court role with the Spurs.
