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 first of one person to wear the No. 60, guard alum Jonathan Gibson. After ending his college career at New Mexico State, Gibson went unselected in the 2010 NBA Draft, playing in other leagues until he signed with the Dallas Mavericks in 2016.
The West Covina, California native was cut days later, and left the league until he signed with Boston in 2018 for his final season in the NBA.
During his time suiting up for the Celtics, Gibson wore only jersey No. 60 and put up 8.5 points and 1.0 assists per game.
