[QUOTE="WhiteRhino, post: 1364778, member: 633721"] I thought this was really cool: [url]http://www.fightingillini.com/news/2018/1/8/mens-basketball-dallas-mavericks-retire-jersey-of-illini-great-derek-harper.aspx[/url] I looked up what other Illini players have had their NBA numbers retired and this is what I found. Jerry Colangelo as an owner and general manager with the Phoenix Suns: [url]http://www.nba.com/suns/history/00826007.html[/url] Johnny Kerr has a statue at the United Center, but I couldn't find any official record that he has a jersey in the rafters for his time as a Bulls player, coach and announcer: [url]http://www.nba.com/bulls/photogallery/kerr_090210.html[/url] Nick Anderson's jersey isn't retired by the Magic, but there is a chance that could happen: [url]https://orlandomagicdaily.com/2014/01/16/nick-anderson-deserves-number-25-retired/[/url] [/QUOTE]
