DeMar DeRozan’s jersey retirement is an odd move by USC basketball

On Thursday, DeMar DeRozan will become one of just seven USC basketball players to have their jersey retired in the rafters at Galen Center.

DeRozan’s No. 10 is the first jersey retirement since Bob Boyd’s No. 19 in 2017, joining Harold Miner’s No. 23, John Rudometkin’s No. 44, Bill Sharman’s No. 11, Paul Westphal’s No. 25, and Gus Williams’ No. 10.
