Charlotte's PR apparently realizing they have nothing to put in the news dug back through their past...we're talking about a player who retired before September 11th and thought now is a good time to honor a former player.

To be fair though, the team has been overwhelmed with their regular and post-season success in recent decades, so the delayed recognition does make sense. Like the DQ you worked at in high school sending you an employee of the month certificate when your 2nd kid graduates from high school.

I agree it's a little silly to be retiring his jersey now, but this franchise has almost no history. Muggsy was a big part of the NBA back in the day. If the fans want it, I think it's fine.
