Muggsy Bogues's No. 1 jersey to be retired

The Charlotte Hornets will retire the No. 1 jersey of franchise icon Muggsy Bogues on February 11. With this decision, the club will officially recognize Bogues's long years in Charlotte and his place in the team's history.

At 5 feet 3 inches, Bogues is the shortest player in NBA history. He spent 10 of his 14 seasons in Charlotte. During that time, he still holds the club's records for assists, steals, and minutes played.

Reflecting on the honor, Bogues said: "For years, I watched everyone from above. When my jersey goes up to the rafters, I'll feel like I'm looking down on the world. It's going to be incredible."

Bogues will be the third player to have his jersey retired by the Hornets. Bobby Phills and Dell Curry have already been honored in this way.
