Golden State Warriors center Kristaps Porziņģis announced on Friday that he is stepping away from basketball to prioritize his health. The 31-year-old revealed the decision in a social media post, stating his body did not respond as expected during his ramp-up, though he did not disclose the specific nature of the issue or whether he plans to return.
Porziņģis signed a two-year, $40 million contract with Golden State in late June after arriving via a trade with Atlanta. He missed training camp and the start of the season under head coach Steve Kerr, but Porziņģis noted he plans to work with the team to find an appropriate solution.
