It is often said that Bogues overcame his height disadvantages to achieve greatness, but he actually used it to his advantage every step of the way. As a member of the Dunbar High School Boys’ Basketball Team, Bogues went 59-0 in his junior and senior year. In the mid-1980s, Bogues became a legend at Wake Forest University. He led the ACC in steals and assists in his senior year and had his number retired shortly after leaving the program. From there, he went on to have a 14-year NBA career.
