Jamal CrawfordVeteran NBA Guard Jamal Crawford Announces Retirement After 20-Year Career
May 7, 2025
After two decades of dazzling crossovers, clutch shots, and unmatched sixth-man brilliance, NBA legend Jamal Crawford has officially announced his retirement from professional basketball. The 44-year-old guard, known for his scoring prowess and longevity, made the announcement via social media, thanking fans, teammates, and coaches for an unforgettable career.
A Career Defined by Offensive Firepower
Crawford, a three-time NBA Sixth Man of the Year (2010, 2014, 2016), played for nine different franchises, including the Chicago Bulls, New York Knicks, Golden State Warriors, Atlanta Hawks, Portland Trail Blazers, Los Angeles Clippers, Minnesota Timberwolves, Phoenix Suns, and Brooklyn Nets. Despite never winning an NBA championship, he left an indelible mark on the league as one of the most electrifying scorers off the bench.
His signature hesitation moves, deep three-pointers, and ability to take over games in the fourth quarter made him a fan favorite wherever he played. Crawford also holds the record for the most four-point plays in NBA history (55), showcasing his ability to draw fouls while draining long-range shots.
Longevity and Leadership
What set Crawford apart was his remarkable durability and adaptability. He played in the NBA until age 39 and famously scored 51 points in his final game with the Phoenix Suns in 2019, becoming the oldest player in league history to drop 50 in a game. Even in his later years, he remained a respected mentor for younger players, known for his professionalism and love of the game.
In a statement, Crawford said, 'Basketball gave me everything—a purpose, a family, and memories I’ll cherish forever. To every city that embraced me, every teammate who trusted me, and every fan who cheered for me, thank you. This game will always be my first love.'
What’s Next?
While Crawford steps away from playing, he has expressed interest in coaching, broadcasting, or front-office roles. Many around the league believe his basketball IQ and charismatic personality would make him a natural fit in media or player development.
As tributes pour in from former teammates and rivals alike, Crawford’s legacy as one of the greatest sixth men and pure scorers in NBA history is secure. His journey—from Seattle high school phenom to 20-year NBA veteran—is a testament to skill, resilience, and an undying passion for the game.
