Danny Green announced his retirement on Thursday after winning NBA championships with three different teams.

The 37-year-old swingman shot 40.0 percent from 3-point range over 15 seasons with six franchises.

Green won titles with the San Antonio Spurs (2014), Toronto Raptors (2019) and Los Angeles Lakers (2020).

“I’m officially moving on from the game of basketball, the NBA. It’s been a great run,” Green announced Thursday on his podcast. “To me, I’m very proud to be able to walk away from the game. I’m at peace with it.”

Green averaged 8.7 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 832 games (709 starts) with the Cleveland Cavaliers (2009-10, 2023), Spurs (2010-18), Raptors (2018-19), Lakers (2019-20), Philadelphia 76ers (2020-22, 2023) and Memphis Grizzlies (2022-23). He appeared in 169 playoff games (159 starts).

Green ranks 32nd in NBA history with 1,892 made 3-pointers in the regular season and postseason, according to Basketball Reference.

He made his final NBA appearance with the 76ers on Oct. 28, 2023, playing five minutes off the bench at Toronto.

Green was a second-round pick (46th overall) by the Cavaliers out of North Carolina in the 2009 NBA Draft and made the NBA’s All-Defensive second team in 2016-17.
