The road came to an end for an Australian basketball legend, Andrew Bogut retires and says goodbye to basketball after 15 years of a career full of stories in which he managed to accumulate an NBA title.
At 36, Bogut decides it’s time to forget about the staves Especially since the battles in the paint began to take their toll, in recent months the injuries were already unbearable and although his dream was to play with the Australian National Team in the Tokyo Olympic Games, the plans fell apart due to the change of date they suffered.
“The last two years were a challenge for me, just getting out of bed a few days and going to training or a game, probably since 2018 my body hung by a thread. The 2019-2020 season was quite a challenge, that thread was completely frayed into pieces and it was very frustrating. “
These are the words that Bogut shared through his podcast “Rogue Bogues.”
Bogut left the NBA two years ago and returned to Australia to play in the local league, his level reached him to be the MVP in the 2019 campaign and he led his team to the final, he wanted to reach the Olympics with his team, but his body did not give him more.
His legacy in the NBA is a championship with the Golden State Warriors in 2015 and that moment when he was selected in the first position by the Milwaukee Bucks in 2005.
