The Golden State Warriors have had over 600 players don the more than 60 jersey numbers used by their players over the more than 75 years of existence the team has enjoyed in its rich and storied history.
Founded in 1946 during the Basketball Association of America (BAA — a precursor league of the NBA) era, the team has called home the cities of Philadelphia, San Francisco, Oakland, and even San Diego.
To commemorate the players who wore those numbers, Warriors Wire is covering the entire history of jersey numbers and the players who sported them since the founding of the team. For this article, we begin with the 16th of 23 players who wore the No. 21 jersey for the Warriors.
That player would be Golden State big man alum Josh Powell. After ending his college career at NC State, Powell would go unselected in the 2003 NBA Draft, instead playing abroad until he signed with the Dallas Mavericks in 2005.
The Charleston, South Carolina native also played for the Indiana Pacers before he was traded to the Dubs in 2007. His stay with the team would span just 30 games, coming to an end when he signed with the Los Angeles Clippers in that same year.
During his time suiting up for the Warriors, Powell wore only jersey No. 21 and put up 3.5 points and 2.3 rebounds per game.
