NBA free-agent guard Tyrell Terry announced his retirement from professional basketball in a post on his personal Instagram page Thursday.
The No. 31 pick in the 2020 NBA draft from the Mavericks cited anxiety as a key reason for walking away from the game at the age of 22.
“Today I decided to let go of the game that has formed a large part of my identity,” Terry wrote. “Something that has guided my path since I took my first steps. While I have achieved amazing accomplishments, created unforgettable memories, and made lifelong friends.
