PETER June Simon officially retired from the PBA on Wednesday, ending a career that saw him rise from an unsigned, fifth-round rookie pick to one of the most reliable wingmen in Purefoods franchise history.
Simon announced he’s finally hanging his jersey just days after Magnolia relegated him to the free agent list three weeks before the Philippine Cup restarts this season inside a bubble at the Clark Freeport.
The 40-year-old guard made the announcement on his Instagram account.
He became the third veteran player to retire in a two-week span after Kelly Williams of TnT Katropa and fellow free agent Sonny Thoss of Alaska.
