Marshall’s (Numeric) Plan

Posted Jul 12, 2012
Since the number he wore in college at UNC, No. 5, is retired in honor of the “Original Sun” Dick Van Arsdale, Kendall Marshall has decided to wear No. 12. It was a decision that came pretty easily for him. “12 or 11 [were what I wanted],” the rookie expressed. “12 was actually my first number. I wanted to wear it in college but Phil Ford had it retired. Really I’m just going back to my original number.” (Suns.com)
