fear

ed man in basketball.

You have to understand how his mind works. Mugsy has said in countless interviews that he owes all his success to him. It's come down to one night and it's time to talk about the night that made Mugsy who he is, he was pretty much established at this point, Mugsy should have been asleep, but he heard a window break across the street when he was five. he had no idea the streets of baltimore were deadly this is the murder capital of the united states but hey he was a kid and kids are curious so mugsy decided to sneak across the street and see what was happening, it was a bad idea that he made his way to this bar and grill right in front of his apartment when all of a sudden the body of five year old Mugsy was lying on the pavement, bleeding unconscious and barely alive, still not having died. noticed but he had just been shot with a 12 gauge shotgun.

Turns out there were some kids outside fighting and someone broke a store window when the old man manchester owner decided to go investigate he stopped and started shooting at the first thing he saw move, poor filthy thing, then he would wake up in the hospital. recovering f from near fatal injuries to his arms and legs somehow survived the age of five mugsy learned that life could end in an instant being in the wrong place at the wrong time my mom and dad were freaking out not knowing what i was outside and then knowing that you know i was one of the kids laying out there with a couple of dollar shots all over my body was very scary so you know that changed my thinking you know i remember back to when i used to going to the court with my basketball and I heard all the words and I heard all the criticism about me for being short but after I got shot I remember going back there and hearing those same criticisms about me but it didn't have the same impact being shot than a five -years old and surviving gave muggsy a ruthless mindset he realized he was killed or killed in life and muggsy decided he wasn't going to be the one to die so now you know muggsy has shotgun cells in the butt and you know what motivates him getting out of the hospital muggsy was more determined than ever to do something with his life yeah this five year old was focused on his future man he was just trying to eat cereal and watch cartoons when he was five mugsy could have a killer now but the kids still saw it as a joke and no one was scared of him, at least not yet, it was time mugsy put this new mindset to the test with his mind set on greatness .

Mugsy started going to a nearby rec center where he played every day for years he would stay at the rec center playing until they closed and when he went home he would stay up all night playing in the hoops he made himself out of boxes of mugsy milk was already dedicating his entire life to the game of basketball and he wasn't even 10 when he got to high school he reached his full height of five foot three he knew that being five foot three is the biggest weakness anyone could have in basketball, but he decided he was going to do his el ight something to be afraid of muggsy played a game for his local public high school team and was instantly picked by dunbar high and dunbar high is so much more than any old high school this is a prestigious school recognized throughout nationally known for producing athletes that go to the nba so a lot of people questioned dunbar's choice wondering why they would want to pick up a metro guy o and a half muggsy has spent his whole life up to this point proving the kids wrong at the rec center now he has to prove himself to the world watching yeah yeah yeah getting in yeah i just wanna win a baby running, yeah mugsy did pretty well in high school with two undefeated seasons a state championship and an mvp mugsy outsmarted everyone by 5'3 his entire high school career his success didn't even make sense and you think with this kind of success upon entering college, Mugsy would have all the options in the world, but after his high school career, Mugsy's entire world fell apart. there wasn't a college that wanted a five foot three boned mugsy since he got shot mugsy dedicated his whole life to the game of basketball and not having a single offer hurt more than getting shot he could ever start communicating with all the schools i could think of begging for any opportunity to try and show what i was made of and in the end mugsy only heard of a wake forest school in north carolina now wake forest isnt a prestigious school by any means but it did attract some nba scouts and it could lead to an opportunity if mugsy can prove himself again when muggy first set foot in wake forest other

players

who tried out thought he was the younger brother of someone he knew if he wanted to make it he had to putting the fear of god in every soul that muggsy from the stadium strapped himself on and started going to work and it must have impressed whoever was there watching because that day muggsy earned a full scholarship and a spot on his team even though he managed to wake up forest that doesn't mean everyone wanted him there his teammates were pretty upset that their school was bringing a five foot boy they didn't respect him and they didn't believe he belonged on the team and it seems the coaches felt the same way, Muggsy barely gave him playing time his first year, but when he had an opportunity, he took it over time.

His teammates realized they were wrong. they were wrong too, but Mugsy was on the court. His team was winning more games his senior year. Muggsy was averaging 14 points, nine assists and nearly three steals per game for a guy his height to do this. believe Mugsy finished his senior year and went from not having a single school to being eligible for the nba draft. This is why Mugsy worked so hard to go to the draft analysts and talk. All the ads had doubts about him. This guy doesn't stand a chance. I mean, look at it. He is five foot seven.

What NBA team would want that guy? Fortunately, for Mugsy. A few days before the draft, he was invited to a training camp in Chicago. This is a pretty typical thing, the nba puts on training camps where teams get a chance to go see the guys that will be in the draft, but this training camp was different, this was the final training camp before the draft. and this was the only one the billionaire team personally owns. he went and saw this created a new life or death scenario for Muggsy Bones right now the conversation is that Mugsy might not get drafted at all and he knew he couldn't take those risks so Muggsy went out and gave it his all could. if he had left his heart on the floor and now sitting in an arena with thousands of other players waiting to see who would change his life forever it was time to see if mugsy's life's work would pay off welcome to the nba draft 1987 San Antonio Spurs select David Robinson from Navy Dennis Hopson from Ohio State Scott Pippen from Central Arkansas Kenny Smith from North Carolina Kevin Johnson from University of California Oldham Polyness University of Virginia Horace Clemson Grant the Washington Bullets select tyrone bones tyrone bogues who is from the washington area dunbar high school is going to be loved by the fans he is now the shortest player in the nba our boy mugsy did it entering the nba in 1988 as the shortest player in the history he proved all the doubters wrong and now that he is in the nba there is nothing stopping him so now you may be wondering if he is in the nba but why what are nba players afraid of this guy? of some guys that played with and against mugsy in the nba mugsy was the smallest and fiercest player i've ever seen he was the smallest on the court but he played like the biggest before you knew it how he played with the most heart candles i mean man he had to be one of the fastest guys in the league he pulled off a junk intensity his competitive spirit i mean bigger than anyone you were never going to punk mugs , it was a defensive pass and he got upset. there were so many players in the league that hated taking the ball up the field no one wanted to take the ball against mugsy he's very hard to play against him huh when a bigger guard picks him up his teammate said mugsy you need help he said no he's so little used to doing this like me every time muggsy walked up to a door and it was slammed in his face but instead of walking away he kicked in every door at the end of his career in 2001. mugsy's career made it clear who was more than the shortest player in the nba tyrone muggsy bogues deserves to go down in history as an nba hall of famer forever changing the game of basketball this is the most feared man to ever walk the court doing what no one though Anything could be possible if ever for a second you doubted yourself and what you could do.

Take a look at this man's life and think again.
