Matt Bonner used a hilarious video to retire last week. Now, it was his old San Antonio Spurs teammates’ turn to retire his jersey and boy did they come through.
The team apparently had a small, quiet ceremony to hang Bonner’s old kit up in the locker room. Spurs forward Manu Ginobili tweeted out the news on Thursday, and reporters were let into the locker room with the retired numbers still hanging.
