The Spurs are paying tribute to one of the best players in franchise history Sunday night against the Pelicans, and they are doing it in style.

When Tim Duncan has his No. 21 jersey retired after the game, the entire team will be wearing socks featuring the number.

Even though Duncan, a 15-time NBA All-Star and five-time NBA champion, just retired after last season, San Antonio felt it could never be too soon to honor their legend.
