Darren Collison Announces Retirement

Pacers point guard Darren Collison announced his decision to retire from the NBA on Friday night in a letter to ESPN's The Undefeated.

The 31-year-old guard out of UCLA spent 10 seasons in the NBA, including four with the Pacers. He helped Indiana reach the playoffs in every season he spent with the Blue & Gold.

After one season with the New Orleans Hornets, Collison originally joined the Pacers via a four team trade in 2010. He averaged 13.2 points and 5.1 assists in his first season in Indiana, helping the Pacers return to the playoffs for the first time in five years.
