Steve Nash: My Back Feels “The Best It’s Felt In A Decade”

Phoenix Suns guard Steven Nash said Tuesday that his back feels “the best it’s felt in a decade” and that he intends to sign a three-year-deal this summer, according to ESPN.com.

"It's been my best year physically from start to finish in a long time," Nash said. "Other than a little tweak [last week] against San Antonio, my back's been pretty close to 100 percent."

The 38-year-old Nash said he plans to play beyond his 40th birthday, whether it is with the Suns or with another team via free agency, according to ESPN.com.

This season, Nash has only missed four games and is averaging 12.7 points and 11.3 assists per game for Phoenix.
