The Boston Celtics have had players suiting up in a total of 68 different jersey numbers (and have three others not part of any numerical series) since their founding at the dawn of the Basketball Association of America (BAA – the league that would become today's NBA), worn by well over 500 players in the course of Celtics history.
To commemorate the players who wore those numbers, Celtics Wire is covering the entire history of jersey numbers and the players who sported them since the founding of the team.
With 25 of those jerseys now retired to honor some of the greatest Celtics to wear those jerseys, there is a lot of history to cover.
And for today's article, we will continue with the 10th of 14 people to wear the No. 55, Boston forward alum Jordan Mickey. After ending his college career at LSU, Mickey was picked up with the 33rd overall selection of the 2015 NBA Draft by the Celtics.
The Dallas, Texas native played the first two seasons of his pro career with Boston, coming to an end when he signed with the Miami Heat in 2017.
During his time suiting up for the Celtics, Mickey wore only jersey No. 55 and put up 1.4 points and 1.1 rebounds per game.
