After 17 seasons in the NBA, which included stints with the Grizzlies, Spurs, Jazz and Raptors, the 38-year-old Brooklyn native announced his retirement in The Players’ Tribune on Tuesday.
“Eighteen years in the league,” wrote Gay, who was active but did not play for a team last season. “Learned from some of the best to ever do it. Made some incredible lifelong friends. Feeling good. Healthy. Inspired. Have a family that loves me, and who I love more than anything.
“I’m not just OK. It’s like…. I’m the luckiest man in the world.”
Rudy Gay began his career with the Grizzlies.
Born in Crown Heights in 1986, Gay played two seasons at UConn before declaring for the NBA Draft.
