During his time suiting up for the Celtics, Glover wore only jersey No. 28 and put up 2.6 points and 1.8 rebounds per game.
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 fifth of 14 people to wear the No. 28, Boston forward alum Clarence Glover. After ending his college career at Western Kentucky, Glover was picked up with the 10th overall selection of the 1971 NBA Draft by the Celtics.
The Horse Cave, Kentucky native would play the only season of his NBA career with Boston, leaving the league as a player afterward.
During his time suiting up for the Celtics, Glover wore only jersey No. 28 and put up 2.6 points and 1.8 rebounds per game.
