Spurs retire Duncan's jersey in emotional ceremony

SAN ANTONIO -- Former San Antonio Spurs power forward Tim Duncan sat in attendance as his team defeated the New Orleans Pelicans 113-100 on Sunday, before attending his jersey retirement ceremony.

Duncan became the eighth Spur in franchise history to have his jersey retired, joining a group that includes George Gervin (44), David Robinson (50), Sean Elliott (32), James Silas (13), Avery Johnson (6), Bruce Bowen (12) and Johnny Moore.

"I'm going to tell you this: I won a lot of bets tonight," Duncan joked.
