In an interview with an Argentinian based website, two-time All-Star Manu Ginobili kept open the possibility of playing after his contract ends in two years but also admitted time wasn't on his side long-term.

"The truth is that I have set the date of my retirement, but I have two years left on this contract in San Antonio, and I will reach age 36. I think it may be an appropriate age to stop playing," Ginobili stated.

Ginobili will turn 34 later this month and has been an integral part of the Spurs' success since joining the club in 2003.
