The\u00a0Brooklyn Nets<\/a>\u00a0have 52 jersey numbers worn by over 600 different players over the course of their history since the franchise was founded in 1967 as a charter member of the American Basketball Association (ABA), when the team was known as the “New Jersey Americans”.<\/p>\n

Since then, that league has been absorbed by the NBA with the team that would later become the New York\u00a0Nets<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0New Jersey Nets<\/a>\u00a0before settling on the name by which they are known today, bringing their rich player and jersey history with them to the league of today.<\/p>\n

The 20th of those players wearing No. 20 played in the (then) New Jersey (now, Brooklyn) Nets<\/a> era, big man alum Jamaal Magloire. After ending his college career at Kentucky, Magloire was picked up with the 19th overall selection of the 2000 NBA draft by the Charlotte Hornets<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Toronto, Ontario native would play the first five seasons of his pro career with the Hornets. He would also play for Milwaukee Bucks<\/a> and Portland Trail Blazers<\/a> before he signed with New Jersey in 2007. His stay with the team would span just 24 games before he was cut in 2008.<\/p>\n
