The Dallas Mavericks announced that they will be retiring Mark Aguirre's No. 24 jersey into the rafters of the American Airlines Center on January 29, 2026, when they take on the Charlotte Hornets at home, and he will now be etched into Mavs history forever.

Aguirre was one of the great all-time Mavericks, as he played the first seven and a half seasons in Dallas after being the No. 1 overall pick in 1981. He was later traded to the Detroit Pistons in 1989, and no Mavs fan will ever forget his name from this moment forward.
