At 5-foot-3, how did Muggsy Bogues turn his height into an advantage — and build a 14-year NBA career? Muggsy joins Ben Taylor of Thinking Basketball in our latest episode of "Anatomy of the Game" to reveal how he used timing, angles and his low center of gravity to thrive against much bigger opponents. Together, they revisit his 18-point, 17-assist, 4-steal performance against the powerful duo of Penny Hardaway, Shaquille O’Neal and the eventual Eastern Conference champion Orlando Magic during the 1994–95 season but also revisit film of memorable matchups against Michael Jordan, Reggie Miller and more. Muggsy explains how he picked elite ballhandlers’ pockets, held his ground against taller players in the post, deceived defenders with his eyes and attacked driving angles others simply couldn't access. Go inside the decisions and techniques that helped him not only make the NBA, but last in the league as a high-impact floor general and starter in his prime.
