Updating a previous report, Brandon Roy said this weekend that his "basketball days are numbered," but he did not announce the end of his NBA career. Roy was mistakenly quoted as saying, "My basketball days are done." The quote has since been amended but the conclusion is the same -- Roy's seven career knee surgeries will likely compel him to retire from the NBA in the near future, this time for good.

Brandon Roy conceded this weekend that his "basketball days are done." Roy made the comments at a University of Washington alumni game. This statement has been expected since he was released by the Wolves after a disappointing 2012-2013 season, and even Roy noted that his impending retirement is "no surprise." Although he hasn't officially announced his retirement, it is only a matter of time.

Timberwolves released Brandon Roy. This could very well be the end of the line for Roy. There was a clause in his contract that allowed the Wolves to terminate his two-year deal after one year if his knees weren't healthy. After appearing in just five games this season, it's clear he's shot. Once a rising young superstar in the league, Roy was felled by seven career knee surgeries. Now 28, the 2007 Rookie of the Year and three-time All-Star is unlikely to get another chance. David Khan was the only GM silly enough to give Roy a guaranteed contract, and he's since been fired by the Wolves.

Brandon Roy (knee) will not play again this season, and GM David Kahn said not to expect Roy back with the team. Kahn confirmed that Roy's career is all but over after chronic knee issues reappeared, and the team could look to include his non-guaranteed contract in a potential trade during the offseason.

Brandon Roy (knee), who is traveling with the Timberwolves, is hoping to play "at least one more time" this season, according to Ric Bucher. Roy is reportedly targeting either April 13 or April 15, and before anyone gets too excited, it's possible he'll simply play a couple of minutes in order to get a basket. Bucher reports that Roy is hoping to continue his career, but it's hard to see how he'll ever be healthy enough to play 50-plus games again.

Brandon Roy (knee) has been practicing for two weeks and will ask Rick Adelman if he can return this season. Well, that came out of nowhere. Roy was considered a long shot to play again this season due to ongoing knee issues, but his "tender right knee is improving," and Roy likely wants to play in at least one more game before being forced to make yet another decision on his playing career.

Brandon Roy (knee) remains out indefinitely and is a long shot to play again this season. Roy is traveling with the team and was previously hopeful that he'd be able to play in at least one more game this year, but time is simply running out.

Brandon Roy hopes to begin practicing when the Wolves return from their current road trip, and he believes he can return to action in "a week or two." It should also be noted that Roy "has no idea how much or what level at which he'll play if he returns," according to beat writer Jerry Zgoda. All bets are off where Roy's knees are concerned -- it's great to hear that he's not yet ready to retire, but fantasy owners shouldn't look to him for reliable value.

Brandon Roy is traveling with the Timberwolves on their road trip, but he remains out indefinitely and not close to playing. Beat writer Jerry Zgoda writes that there has been "no sign" of Roy practicing nor any sign of his return being "anywhere in sight." At this point, if Roy does return, it should be considered a pleasant surprise as time is running out on his career in the NBA.

Rick Adelman admitted that he's not expecting Brandon Roy (knee) to return this season. "If he does play, it will be a pleasant surprise," Adelman said. "I don't expect him at this point." It's a sad reminder that Roy's knee just isn't where it needs to be, and this could very well be the end of his career in the NBA.
