Guy announced his retirement from playing basketball Wednesday and will return to Virginia to serve as a special assistant, Mike Barber of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.
Guy was the most outstanding player for Virginia during the 2019 championship run, but he struggled to make it professionally after being selected by the Knicks in the second round of the draft that year. He made 53 regular-season appearances in the NBA -- 34 with Sacramento and 19 with Miami -- but never averaged more than 10 minutes per game in a single season.
