Gordon Hayward has retired from the NBA after 14 seasons, he announced on social media Thursday.

"Today, I am officially retiring from the game of basketball," Hayward wrote. "It's been an incredible ride and I'm so grateful to everyone who helped me achieve more than I ever imagined."

A versatile forward, Hayward -- the ninth overall pick in the 2010 NBA draft by the Utah Jazz -- was an All-Star in 2017 with Utah before signing with the Boston Celtics as a free agent that summer.
