The retired swingman got his start with the Sixers. Iguodala will become just the seventh player to have his number retired by Golden State in a ceremony next month.

SAN FRANCISCO — The first of what is expected to be five jersey retirements from the Golden State Warriors dynasty has been announced. The franchise will retire Andre Iguodala’s No. 9 jersey on Feb. 23, coinciding with another Klay Thompson return night, allowing Thompson to attend.

Andre Iguodala remembers it all like yesterday. The joy he observed on the court and in the crowd during that playoff series as a member of the opposing Nuggets. The unlimited potential of that baby-faced assassin with unlimited range.
