During his time suiting up for the Celtics, Brickowski wore only jersey No. 34 and put up 4.8 points and 2.0 assists 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 ninth of 11 people to wear the No. 34, Boston big man alum Frank Brickowski. After ending his college career at Penn State, Brickowski was picked up with the 57th overall selection of the 1981 NBA Draft by the New York Knicks.
The Bayville, New York native would play the first three seasons of his pro career abroad instead, however, joining the NBA in 1984 when he signed with the Seattle SuperSonics. He also played for the Los Angeles Lakers, San Antonio Spurs, Milwaukee Bucks, Charlotte Hornets, and Seattle again before signed with Boston for the final season of his NBA career.
During his time suiting up for the Celtics, Brickowski wore only jersey No. 34 and put up 4.8 points and 2.0 assists per game.
