===2008–09 season===
In the 2008 preseason, Roy underwent a 20-minute medical procedure in [[Vancouver, Washington]], during which team physician Don Roberts removed a piece of [[cartilage]] that was causing irritation in Roy's left knee. Roy missed several weeks of action because of the rehabilitation, but was ready on the opening day of the season against the [[Los Angeles Lakers]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://myespn.go.com/blogs/truehoop/0-33-179/Report--Brandon-Roy-Will-Be-Ready-for-Opening-Day.html |title=Report: Brandon Roy Will Be Ready for Opening Day |date=August 14, 2008 |accessdate=August 15, 2008}}</ref> On November 6, against the Houston Rockets, Roy hit a game-winning 30-foot jumper at the buzzer in overtime with eight-tenths of a second left.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.tsn.ca/nba/story/?id=255047 |title=Roy's Buzzer-Beater Lifts Blazers Past Yao, Rockets in OT |accessdate=November 9, 2008}}</ref>

===2009–10 season===
On August 5, 2009, it was confirmed that Roy had agreed to a four-year [[NBA Salary Cap#Maximum Individual Contracts under the CBA|maximum-salary contract]] with a fifth-year player option, keeping him a Trail Blazer until at least the 2013–14 season.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4379864 |title=Roy agrees to extension with Blazers |publisher=ESPN |date=August 6, 2009 |accessdate=September 13, 2009}}</ref>

Roy was selected to compete in the [[2010 NBA All-Star Game]], marking his third selection as an NBA All-Star. However, Roy was sidelined because of a right hamstring injury he sustained on January 13 against the [[Milwaukee Bucks]], and re-aggravated on January 20 against the [[Philadelphia 76ers]].<ref name="10AS" />

On April 11, 2010, Roy injured his right knee. [[Magnetic resonance imaging]] that night confirmed a right knee bone contusion (bone bruise) and on April 12, further examination of the MRI showed a slight meniscus tear. Roy underwent surgery on April 16 and was expected to miss at least the first round of the [[2010 NBA Playoffs]], but returned for Game 4 after eight days of recovery time to lead the Blazers to a win.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/playoffs/2010/news/story?id=5095872|author=Associated Press|title=Roy to miss postseason|publisher=ESPN.com|accessdate=April 15, 2010}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://espn.go.com/blog/TrueHoop/post/_/id/15382/roy-returns-for-trail-blazers|author=John Hollinger |title=Roy returns for Trail Blazers|publisher=ESPN.com|accessdate=April 24, 2010}}</ref>

===2010-11 season===
Roy started the first month of the season scoring at his normal rate, but by December, it started showing that his knees, which have bothered him since college and were injured in April, were ailing due to lack of cartilage, and he missed 9 games before the Trail Blazers announced that he would be out indefinitely.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.upi.com/Sports_News/2010/12/30/Brandon-Roy-out-indefinitely/UPI-21061293762954/|author=UPI.com|title=Brandon Roy out indefinitely|publisher=UPI.com|accessdate=October 23, 2011}}</ref> It was widely speculated that Roy would not be able to play at an All-Star level again.

Brandon Dawayne Roy (born July 23, 1984)[1] was an American professional basketball player for the Portland Trail Blazers of the National Basketball Association[2]. He was selected sixth in the 2006 NBA Draft, having completed four years playing for the Washington Huskies. In 2009, he served as the team's co-captain, along with LaMarcus Aldridge. His nickname is "B-Roy", but he is also referred to as "The Natural" by announcer Brian Wheeler.[3][4]

Born in Seattle, Washington, Roy became known for his immediate impact on the Trail Blazers.[5] Zach Randolph, then the team captain, was traded to the New York Knicks at the end of Roy's first season, which cleared the way for Roy to take on a leadership role on the team.[1] Though hampered by an injured ankle, Roy won the NBA Rookie of the Year Award for 2006–07 in a near-unanimous vote. He played 57 games as a rookie and averaged 16.8 points per game in the 2006–07 season. He was selected as a reserve to the 2008 NBA All-Star Game,[6] the 2009 NBA All-Star Game,[7] and the 2010 NBA All-Star Game.[8] Roy played the most minutes of any Western Conference player, and tied for the most points in the West in the 2008 game, and he played the most minutes of any player during the 2009 game.[9]

Early years

Roy was born in Seattle, Washington on July 23, 1984, and attended the African-American Academy elementary school.[10] He first started taking basketball seriously while playing for the Amateur Athletic Union, one of the largest sports organizations in the United States.[11] He attended Garfield High School in Seattle, and was considered one of the state's best high school players.[12] He was an early-entry candidate for the 2002 NBA Draft straight out of high school, but he withdrew his name after consideration.[13][14]

Roy attended Nate McMillan's basketball camp in the 1990s when the current Blazer coach was still playing for the Seattle Supersonics.

College career

Roy faced challenges before entering college. His parents and his older brother had not attended college, and due to a learning disability Roy had difficulty with the SAT; his reading comprehension was slow, which increased the time he needed for tests. He had taken the test four times (with tutors) before finally meeting the NCAA requirements.[11] Unsure whether he would be able to attend a four-year college course, Roy worked on the Seattle docks, cleaning shipping containers for $11/hour.[11]

In 2002, Roy started to play for the University of Washington (UW). He remained there for four years under head coach Lorenzo Romar. He majored in American Ethnic Studies.[15] After his junior year, Roy considered entering the draft, but changed his mind when he learned that teammate Nate Robinson and high school senior and UW signee Martell Webster intended to enter the draft. He saw an opportunity to rise in the ranks on his college team, and improve his draft position.[11]

During his senior year Roy averaged 20.2 points per game while leading the Huskies to a 26–7 season and a second straight Sweet Sixteen appearance.[16] Roy was named Pac-10 player of the year and received All-American honors at the end of the season, while also being a finalist for the Wooden, Naismith, Oscar Robertson, and Adolph Rupp awards.[15] Roy had a 2006 pre-draft workout with the Trail Blazers prior to being selected by the Minnesota Timberwolves as the sixth overall pick. However, he was immediately traded to the Trail Blazers for the draft rights of Randy Foye.[5][17] On January 22, 2009, before a University of Washington Husky home game versus the USC Trojans, his number 3 uniform was retired.[18]

2006–07 season

Brandon Roy defending DeShawn Stevenson in a game

Roy's NBA debut was in his hometown against the Seattle SuperSonics.[19] He scored 20 points in that game, and 19 in the following game.Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page). He returned to the lineup on February 25, scoring 18 points off the bench, including a clutch three-pointer to force overtime, and helping the Blazers win the game 107-106.[20] Roy then took on a reserve role for the rest of the season, scoring inconsistently to finish with a career-low season average of 12.2 points, 2.6 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 28 minutes in 47 games.

The Blazers then faced the Dallas Mavericks in the first round of the 2011 NBA Playoffs. Roy went a total of 1-for-8 the first 2 games, including a Game 2 where he saw only 8 minutes of playing time and went scoreless. The Blazers lost both games and trailed 0-2 in the series. He expressed his frustration about being the last substitution during the first 2 quarters, and playing for 8 minutes after getting 26 minutes in Game 1. [21] The series then went to Portland, and Roy scored 16 points in 23 minutes of the bench to boost the Blazers to a 97-92 Game 3 win.

Both the Blazers and Mavericks started Game 4 with a quiet first half, with Dallas leading slightly. The Blazers then missed their first 15 shots after halftime as the Mavs' lead grew as big as 67-44. Roy then made a three-pointer near the end of the third to cut the lead to 67-49. In the fourth quarter, Roy scored 18 points after going 1-for-3 the previous 3 quarters, including a clutch 4-point play to tie the game and a bank shot from the middle of the paint with 49 seconds left to give his team the lead for good, finishing with 24 points to lead the Blazers to an improbable 84-82 win to tie the series. [22]

The Blazers would go on to lose the series in 6 games, but it gave hope for Roy to start again next season.

Retirement

It was reported on Dec. 9, 2011, that Roy plans to retire as an NBA player due to a degenerative knee condition.[23]

Personal life

Roy signing an autograph for a fan in 2009

Roy's longtime girlfriend Tiana Bardwell delivered their first child, Brandon Jr., whom they nicknamed BJ, on March 27, 2007, in Seattle.[24]

About two months later, Roy took Bardwell out to look at rings "just to get an idea of what she'd like". On June 16, 2007, while both were at Roy's home in Renton, Washington, he sent Bardwell a text message instructing her to look in a drawer in his closet, telling her that she could have whatever she found. Bardwell discovered a ring that she had mentioned she liked, at which point Roy entered the room with their son and said, "BJ wants to know if you will marry his daddy". Bardwell immediately accepted. Roy said the entire proposal was "free-styled".[25] Roy and Bardwell had their second child, Mariah Leilani, in January 2009.[26]

Roy and Bardwell got married on September 4, 2010, in West Linn where the couple resides.[27]
