A candid and insightful memoir from one the NBA's most unlikely
stars. Growing up, Muggsy Bogues was always told he should do
something else, anything besides basketball. He never acknowledged
his many doubters except to prove them spectacularly wrong. Twenty
years after receiving his first basketball as a toddler, he stood
proud—at five-foot-three—as the starting point guard for the
Charlotte Hornets in the NBA. From the East Baltimore playground
courts where he earned his nickname by "muggin'" opponents for
possession of the ball, to Dunbar High School where he excelled
alongside future NBA players, 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, John Stockton,
and other generational stars of '80s and '90s hoops. He shares
far-ranging anecdotes from playoff runs in Charlotte, filming Space
Jam, and even watching a young Steph Curry grow up. Conversational
and clear-sighted, this is a story of uncompromising vision and
fleet-footed determination during a golden era for the NBA.
