Dragic announced his retirement Saturday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Dragic will play a final farewell game in Slovenia in August, per Charania, but his NBA playing days are now over. He logged 946 games played, averaging 13.3 points, 3.0 rebounds and 4.7 assists stretching across 15 seasons.
Dragic provided 14 points (4-11 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and four assists across 26 minutes during Friday's 137-114 loss to Memphis.
Dragic played 26 minutes in the loss, the most he has played since arriving in Milwaukee. While this performance did come in a game without the starters, it is certainly an encouraging sign for the Bucks heading into the playoffs. He will not have a major role moving forward but will likely feature in one way, shape or form, given he can provide a calming influence off the bench.

Bucks' Goran Dragic: Makes team debut
Rotowire
Dragic (knee) played nine minutes in Monday's 126-117 win over Detroit, scoring zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) but recording three assists.
Though he agreed to a contract with the Bucks in early March, Dragic didn't debut for his new team until Monday after he had been outside of the rotation initially before missing a few games while he managed a sore knee. With Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) and Jrue Holiday (personal) sitting Monday, Dragic got the chance to play, though he handled only a minimal role off the bench. Dragic could be part of the rotation Wednesday in Indiana if either or both of Antetokounmpo or Holiday remain out, but the veteran point guard doesn't look like he'll have a clear path to minutes on the occasions that the Bucks are at full strength.

Dragic has yet to debut for Milwaukee, but he'll have a good chance to do so Monday. However, Milwaukee's backcourt is currently at full strength, so the veteran point guard may not be included in the rotation even if he's cleared to suit up.
