Ben McLemore signs with Memphis Grizzlies: 5 big questions

3. Will Ben McLemore continue to sport the No. 23?

Here’s the biggest question of all for the fans that are looking to buy McLemore’s new Memphis Grizzlies’ threads. But so far in his four-year career, the Kings’ shooting guard has already worn two separate numbers. He started his career off by sporting No. 16, but made the switch to No. 23.

Obviously, McLemore has had more success in the No. 23, but there’s also more pressure wearing that number. The constant thought of the GOAT, Michael Jordan, sporting that number always is a thought when a player today wears it.

Who are the players today in the NBA that sport that coveted number? LeBron James and Draymond Green come to mind, but those are two stars who really live up to the aura of that jersey number.

So, in my opinion, to get that monkey off his back, McLemore should switch his number up and sport something else. New city, new number for the new Grizzly. Any guess of what it should be? Maybe 2, 3 or 32, anything that’s not 23.
