Ranking the Best Jersey Numbers in NBA History | News, Scores, Highlights, Stats, and Rumors

Notable players who wore/wear No. 23:

Yes, I'm as surprised as you are as to why I'm ranking the legendary No. 23 so low. Let me explain. No. 23 hasn't had a whole lot of successful players wear it outside of some of the more obvious ones. Currently, the best player wearing No. 23 is Jason Richardson, which is kind of disappointing.

Still, with two all-time greats in Michael Jordan and LeBron James, No. 23 is nothing to be ashamed of. Just those two alone make this number worthy, and even though LeBron James is no longer wearing this number, it has been good to him up until now. Honestly speaking, had it not been for Michael Jordan, this number probably would not have even made the list.
