Kings to retire Dustin Brown’s number


Dustin Brown is getting some serious star treatment. 

The Los Angeles Kings will retire the former NHL winger's number and unveil a statue in his honor during a ceremony on Feb. 11 at Crypto.com Arena, they announced Tuesday.

Brown's No. 23 will be the seventh number in franchise history to reach the rafters, joining those of Rogie Vachon, Marcel Dionne, Dave Taylor, Wayne Gretzky, Luc Robitaille, and Rob Blake.

He'll become the third Kings player to have a statue outside Crypto.com Arena, after Gretzky and Robitaille.
