"Twenty years after receiving his first basketball as a toddler, he stood proud--at 5'3"--as the starting point guard for the Charlotte Hornets, the teal-clad team that personified cool in the NBA of the '90s. After playing in more than 800 NBA games, he became a mentor to other diminutive guides, including Stephen and Seth Curry, whose father, Dell, he befriended while playing for the Hornets. Bogues set the tone in his early years for the great heights he'd reach professionally.... In this new autobiography, Bogues delves deep into his life and career, reflecting on legendary battles with Michael Jordan and playing along side Alonzo Mourning, Larry Johnson, Latrell Sprewell, Tracy McGrady, Vince Carter, and other generational hoop stars of the '80s and '90s. He shares far-ranging anecdotes from playoff runs in Charlotte, his appearance in several TV shows and movies, including Space Jam; and his stint coaching in the WNBA. Muggsy is a candid and insightful memoir from one of the NBA's most unlikely stars."-- Publisher.
