1. Which Celtics number has been donned the most (26 times)?
2. Second most (25 times)?
3. Third most (24 times)?
4. Name the seven numbers that are tied for having been donned the least (one time only)?
(no Googling)

98 CollinsLOL

98 CollinsLOL
Yes, that's one of the answers to question #4. Six more.
-
Woops, I miscounted: there are actually eight (not seven) numbers worn only once. Hint: two are retired.
-
Darko must be one too... 99, I think.

That's another one. Now, six more.

Lol, and I'm wrong again. #99 was worn twice, once by Darko and once by Roy Rogers in 1998. Seven one-time only numbers remain (including two retired ones).

Okay, I probably don't know any more :)
Wait.
That photoshopped pic of Austin Rivers on that guy's profile.
25 = KC Jones, retired after only he played with it ^_^

I would think 11, 12, 13 would be the most popular numbers, in that order. Though off the top of my head, I can only think of a few guys who wore them.
11: Courtney Lee, Glen Davis, Sasha Pavolic, Marcus Banks, Dana Barros, etc.
12: Barbosa, Ricky Davis, Dominique Wilkins
13: Fab Melo, Gabe Pruit, Todd Day.
For an honorable mention I'd go with 4 and 7, as the 4th and 5th most popular.
-
I imagine #4 would be one the most used numbers. #7 too. for the sake of this game I'll say the most used is 7 and second most is 4.
From what I remember:
#4: Marquis Daniels, Terry, Nate Robinson, Kristic, Chris Mihm, Ryan Gomes,
#7: Marquis Daniels, Al Jefferson, Kenny Anderson, Chucky Atkins, Jermaine O'Neil, Sully.
Those were just the recent ones.
One time uses. #66 Scot Pollard #00 Parish. Has anyone ever worn 1 and 2?
edit: I've been ninja'd :D
-
I'm pretty sure 20 was a popular number, and so is 8.
-
I would also guess Antoine Walker was the only one to wear 88.

13: Fab Melo, Gabe Pruit, Todd Day. Delonte West

Can't think of anyone else wearing 36 other than Shaq.
-
How about 0?
-
sorry edit nvm
-
How about 0?
Bradley and Powe. I'm sure there were more (Orien Greene?)
-
Somebody's gonna cheat right? Well don't click any links I give you. ;) I wonder if anyone will see it ;D

?
EDIT: Oops, already been posted. Well, now with visual aids!
-
Along with several of the other numbers listed already, I'm going to guess that #77 (Pavlovic) and #93 (P.J. Brown) have only been used once.
-
How about 0?
Bradley and Powe. I'm sure there were more (Orien Greene?)
One of my all time favs Walter McCarty wore #0
-
#86 Semih Erden
I think Chris Johnson also wore #86, just after we traded Erden.
-
#6 worn by anybody else then the best center of all time?
-
Anyone have Antoine's #88?
(http://photos1.blogger.com/img/76/2381/400/toine2.jpg)
-
Chalk up Bill Walker as another one to wear #12. I think that's probably a pretty good guess.
-
Pollard wore 66 didn'te he? I'm thinking that may be one of the one timers.
I'm on the 11 & 12 bandwagon too. A couple of other users for 11 in recent years I can think of are Marcus Banks, Shammond Williams, Randy Brown and Dana Barros. For #12 there was Chris Herren, Von Wafer, Allen Ray and (I think) Bimbo Coles. A lot of activity for those numbers in the last 20 years or so, so I reckon they may be in the mix.
-
How about 0?
Bradley and Powe. I'm sure there were more (Orien Greene?)
Montross. He wore 00 at UNC and couldn't have it because it was Chief's
I have a feeling like 55 has been used a bunch of times
-
