Heat retire Chris Bosh’s jersey at American Airlines Arena (Video)

NBA: Orlando Magic at Miami Heat

The Miami Heat paid homage to one of the best big men in the history of its franchise, in the form of a huge honor on Tuesday night.

Chris Bosh, who won two titles with the Heat — paired alongside LeBron James and Dwyane Wade — had his jersey hung from the rafters at American Airlines Arena.

Bosh first received a tribute video from the team, which was shown on the videoboard.

He later delivered a speech to Heat fans at halftime.

And then the big moment came, with Bosh’s No. 4 jersey being lifted up to the rafters.

That seemed like an excessive amount of sparks and special effects, but that’s just how Miami does it. Either way, props to Bosh for receiving his big moment.
