Brogdon was competing for a roster spot with the Knicks, but has instead decided to retire after a nine-season career.
“Today, I officially begin my transition out of my basketball career,” Brogdon wrote in a statement to ESPN. “I have proudly given my mind, body, and spirit to the game over the last few decades. With the many sacrifices it took to get here, I have received many rewards. I am deeply grateful to have arrived to this point on my own terms and now to be able to reap the benefits of my career with my family and friends.
“Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, to all who have had a place in my journey.”
Charania reports that Brogon was set to make the Knicks’ regular season roster, but has been contemplating retirement, and informed the Knicks of his decision on Wednesday.
