Muggsy Bogues
Years in the NBA: 1987-2001
Nicknames: None of note
Calling Card: Speed and height
At 5’3”, Muggsy Bogues remains the shortest player to ever grace the NBA.
But with great speed and hops, Bogues still managed to last in the NBA for 14 seasons, making fans’ jaws drop with wonder as a guy shorter than them made defenders look silly.
Love this guy

J.J. Barea
Years in the NBA: 2006-present
Nicknames: None of note
Calling Card: Height and shiftiness
J.J. Barea really broke through during the 2011 NBA Playoffs for the Dallas Mavericks and became an instant sensation.
The little man who can’t actually be more than 5’9” would weave through everyone on the court and then throw in an awkward runner or floater that somehow just found its way over the tips of the bigger players’ fingertips.
He was thrilling to watch, but it remains to be seen whether or not he can keep it up.
No notable nicknames?
I kinda like “The Streakin’ Puerto Rican,” myself….
Jimmy Jackson, Jason Kidd, Jamal Mashburn
I know most of you have no clue who this is, but I love me some Jimmy Jackson! lol
Had stickers of him on the wall of my childhood bedroom, along with the rest of the “3 Js”. Seems like this guy played for every team in the NBA lol.
I wanted to do this every since Game 4 against the Lakers. I was singing “Jet” by Paul McCartney and the wings every time Terry hit a 3, and I’ve done it ever since.
This is my first time editing a video, so bear with me…
*1 W away ! NBA Finals 3-2 MAVS !
Yes! I’m on such a high right now!
What a team effort tonight, that was incredible.
I am now convinced that my Jason Kidd shirt has mystical powers.
Jason Kidd to all those people who said he had an off game in game 4:
