TCU Retires No. 1 Jersey of Desmond Bane

Desmond Bane, a standout guard for the Memphis Grizzlies, recently had his No. 1 jersey retired by Texas Christian University (TCU) in recognition of his significant contributions to the basketball program. Bane played a pivotal role in leading the Horned Frogs to their first NCAA Tournament appearance in 20 years in 2018, following an NIT championship win during his freshman year. He holds several records at TCU, including the most made 3-pointers (249), games played (141), and ranks third in points scored (1,784). This honor marks him as the sixth player in TCU's history to have his jersey retired. The retirement ceremony took place during TCU's game against Texas Tech, which ended in a victory for the Horned Frogs. Bane expressed his gratitude and described the recognition as a 'dream come true' (ClutchPoints, ESPN, Winnipeg Free Press).
