I loved Roy’s play when he was still with the Huskies, and I thought he’d be one of the next-big-things in the NBA. For a while, he was… but injuries took their toll. Always sad to see good players retire before their time. Good luck on your future endeavors, Brandon Roy.
“This is a very difficult and painful day. I love the game, I love the Portland Trail Blazers and I love our fans, but after consulting with my doctors, I will seek a determination that I’ve suffered a career ending injury, pursuant to the rules of the collective bargaining agreement.”
“My family and health are most important to me and in the end this decision was about them and my quality of life. I want to thank Paul Allen, Larry Miller, Coach McMillan, the entire Trail Blazers organization and our fans for all of their love and support during my time in Portland.”
“It was a great ride.”
-Brandon Roy
