The Houston Rockets have had players donning a total of 52 different jersey numbers (and have one not part of any numerical series for Houston assistant coach and general manager Carroll Dawson) since their founding at the start of the 1967-68 season, worn by just under 500 players in the course of Rockets history.
To honor all of the players who wore those numbers over the decades, Rockets Wire is covering the entire history of jersey numbers and the players who wore them since the founding of the team all those years ago right up to the present day.
With seven of those jerseys now retired to honor some of the greatest Rockets of all time to wear those jerseys, there is a lot of history to cover.
And for today's article, we will continue with
the 10th of 15 who wore the No. 30, Thomas Hamilton. After ending his college career at Pitt, Hamilton went unselected in the 1994 NBA Draft, signing with the Boston Celtics instead
It came to an end when the Chicago native signed with the Houston Rockets in 1999 for the final season of his NBA career.
During his time suiting up for the Rockets, Hamilton wore only jersey No. 30 and put up 3.7 points and 4.1 rebounds per game.
