BOSTON (AP) – The Boston Celtics have spoken with future Hall of Famer Reggie Miller about coming out of retirement, Miller said Wednesday.

“I’m always flattered when my name is mentioned as someone who can still help an NBA team win a championship,” Miller said in a statement relayed to The Associated Press by the TNT network. “I’ve had limited discussions with Celtics management about their roster and a potential role for me. At this time, I’m enjoying my role as an analyst with TNT.”

Miller played 18 seasons in the NBA, all with the Indiana Pacers, before retiring in 2005. He is 13th on the league’s career scoring list with 25,279 points.

ESPN.com was the first to report the talks with Boston.

Celtics officials did not respond to requests for comment. Miller’s agent, Arn Tellem, declined comment.
