The Hornets guard will become the third player in franchise history to have his number retired.
The Charlotte Hornets announced that they will retire Tyrone "Muggsy" Bogues' No. 1 jersey on February 11 during a home game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Bogues, who stands 5 feet 3 inches tall and is the shortest player in NBA history, spent 10 seasons with Charlotte and remains the franchise's all-time leader in assists, steals, and minutes played.
He will become the third player to have his jersey retired by the Hornets, joining Bobby Phills and Dell Curry. Selected in the 1988 expansion draft, Bogues helped lead Charlotte to three playoff appearances, finishing his 14-year NBA career with 889 regular-season appearances before retiring in 2001.
