Luke Ridnour retires: I’m not going to go back
The player has not played this season
Luke Ridnour is retiring after sitting the entire season.
Per Bellingham Herald, On June 24, Ridnour was traded by the Orlando Magic to the Memphis Grizzlies in a move to clear cap space. A day later, the Grizzlies traded the 6-foot-2 guard to the Charlotte Hornets, who turned around and traded him to the Oklahoma City Thunder. Five days later, he was dealt to the Toronto Raptors, who released him on July 9.
Ridnour ended up sitting out the 2015-16 NBA season and ultimately announced his plans to retire on Tuesday,
“I’m retired,” said Ridnour, who helped lead Blaine to 1999 and 2000 Class 2A high school state titles before playing collegiately at the University of Oregon. “I’m not going to go back. I think I knew it last summer, I just didn’t say it.”
Ridnour said he has yet to file his formal retirement paperwork with the league office, but he plans to do so “pretty soon.”
