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 25th of 25 people to wear the No. 13 jersey, Boston forward alum Drew Peterson.
After ending his college career at USC, Libertyville, Illinois native would go unselected in the 2023 NBA draft, instead playing in the G League until he signed with the Celtics in 2024. He remains with the team at the time of writing.
During his time suiting up for the Celtics, Peterson wore only jersey No. 13 and put up 2.1 points and 1.5 rebounds per game.
