Michael Redd to announce retirement from NBA

Former All-Star shooting guard and U.S. Olympic team member Michael Redd will officially announce his retirement from the NBA during an appearance at Milwaukee’s home game against Cleveland on Wednesday, the Bucks announced.

Redd, the 43rd pick in the 2000 draft, spent 12 seasons in the NBA, the first 11 with the Bucks and the last one, in 2011-12, with the Suns.

Before knee injuries plagued him late in his career, Redd was known for his scoring prowess and the quick release on his left-handed jump shot.
