Top 5 players in the NBA who have worn the #13 jersey

#3 Steve Nash

Steve Nash

Currently the head coach of the Brooklyn Nets, Steve Nash made his name as a point guard in the NBA.

Nash was a part of the '7 seconds or less' Phoenix Suns, which was coached by his current assistant Mike D'Antoni. He averaged 14 points and a whopping 8.5 assists in his career, leading the NBA in dimes on five occasions.

Steve Nash won back-to-back MVP awards as the Suns' starting point guard but could never lay his hands on the coveted Larry O'Brien championship. However, Nash still has time to win a ring, albeit as a head coach, though.

#2 Joakim Noah

Joakim Noah (#33)

The 2014 NBA Defensive Player of the Year, a two-time NBA All-Star and a three-time NBA All-Defense player, Joakim Noah is a surprise package on this list. Once one of the best defensive players in the NBA, Noah doesn't play in the league anymore, but that doesn't make any of his past achievements less.

Joakim Noah was part of Tom Thibodeau's gritty Chicago Bulls team, which also featured the likes of 2011 NBA MVP Derrick Rose and star swingman Jimmy Butler.

#1 Wilt Chamberlain

Wilt Chamberlain

Arguably, no player has ever dominated the NBA as Wilt Chamberlain did during his playing days. Chamberlain donned the #13 jersey throughout his playing career, and to be fair, he was the one who made the #13 an iconic number in the NBA.

Standing at an intimidating 7' 1", Wilt Chamberlain played the center position. He averaged as many as 50.4 points, 27.2 rebounds and 8.6 assists in a single season. He also led the NBA in those categories on seven occasions. Chamberlain was the 1960 Rookie of the Year, a four-time regular-season MVP and the 1972 Finals MVP and won two NBA titles.

Chamberlain is one of the greatest NBA players of all time, with his jersey being retired by three franchises - Philadelphia 76ers, Golden State Warriors and LA Lakers.
