Bogut retires, calls quits on his bid for an Olympic medal

The 36-year-old Australian had earlier cited back and ankle injuries, the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent postponement of the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo as potential reasons to retire. Bogut, a 2005 No. 1 draft pick by Milwaukee and who won an NBA championship with the Golden State Warriors in 2015, had been planning to retire after playing for Australia at the Tokyo Games. "I just can't physically and mentally get to 2021 with the way the body has been," Bogut said on his "Rogue Bogues" podcast.
