After 14 seasons, 857 regular season games and two Slam Dunk titles, former Phoenix Suns guard Jason Richardson will be retiring from professional basketball.
Richardson broke the news Wednesday night on Instagram.
According to the Marc J. Spears of Yahoo! Sports, “J-Rich” will be walking away from the game of basketball — after just having signed with the Atlanta Hawks — following an MRI that revealed bone spurs in his right knee.
He spent six hours thinking the decision over yesterday before informing Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer of his decision.
