Houston Rockets jersey history No. 14 - Art Williams (1967-70)
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 first of 11 who wore the No. 14, guard alum Art Williams. After ending his college career at Cal Poly Pomona, Williams went unselected in the 1963 NBA Draft, instead signing with the (then) San Diego (now, Houston) Rockets in 1967.
The San Diego, California native played the first three seasons of his pro career with the Rockets, coming to an end when he was dealt to the Boston Celtics in 1970. During his time suiting up for the Rockets, Williams wore only jersey No. 14 and put up 7.
0 points, 4. 0 rebounds, and 6. 0 assists per game.
