Veteran guard Mo Williams informed the Cleveland Cavaliers of his decision to retire and will not report to training camp.
General manager David Griffin told reporters the news at media day on Monday, per Jason Lloyd of the Akron Beacon Journal.
The Cavaliers cannot use the stretch provision to spread Williams' $2.2 million salary over the next three years. They chose not to waive him before the Aug. 31 stretch deadline.
Williams, 33, previously exercised his player option for 2016-17—seemingly indicating he'd come back for a 14th NBA season.
