Because Michael Jackson's Thriller was at number 1 for 37 weeks. Just heard bout it. Nice tribute to Micheal I guess.

lol?

Why not 50, how old he was when he passed?
Why not 58, the year he was born?
Why not 09, the year he passed?
Why not 99, the number of different faces Mike had?

jersey numbers are usually below 55 because refs have to signal them, bu you have the exceptions ofc.

Ya I am pretty sure the NBA is the only level that allows numbers 6-9. College on down no one uses those numbers

99 is Mikan and Lakers won't let anyone have it

Ron should have requested #?

And just had 2 symbols on his back.
