Nemanja Bjelica, the champion of the Golden State Warriors, has apparently resigned from basketball.
According to Sportando, NBA veteran Nemanja Bjelica has retired from basketball after winning a championship with the Golden State Warriors in 2022. Having played in 71 regular-season games and 15 postseason games, Bjelica’s championship run with Golden State was his final NBA season.
Bjelica had a strong career that culminated in an NBA title during his seven seasons as an NBA player. Although Bjelica’s final NBA season was not without its ups and downs, as a stretch big and secondary playmaker, he was generally a valuable member of the Warriors team. Bjelica had significant moments throughout the regular season and postseason while playing a well-defined role for Golden State.
Sportando noted that Bjelica is retiring as a result of injuries in their article. It appears as though Bjelica will be giving up basketball completely since injuries have made it impossible for him to play, even though there are options for him to continue playing overseas. It appears that Bjelica, who is 35 years old, has decided to pursue this as a career.
After being selected in the second round of the NBA, Bjelica established a very good career for himself as a reliable role player. Being an NBA champion is the best way to end your career, so it’s a great way to complete that final season.
