Brogdon announced his decision to retire from the league after nine seasons on Wednesday afternoon, just a week before he and the New York Knicks were set to officially open the 2025-26 campaign.
Brogdon got his start in the league with the Milwaukee Bucks, who selected him with the No. 36 overall pick out of Virginia in 2016. He spent three seasons there and another three with the Indianapolis Pacers before bouncing around to end his career. After quick runs with the Boston Celtics and Portland Trail Blazers, Brogdon spent last season with the Washington Wizards. He averaged 12.7 points and 4.1 assists in just 24 games while dealing with multiple injuries.
Brogdon signed a one-year deal worth up to $3.3 million with the Knicks earlier this offseason, though he was fighting to make the final roster spot with the franchise ahead of opening day.
