By the numbers – ranking Boston’s players by jersey: No. 55

While no legendary Boston Celtics wore No. 55 over the years, plenty of players of note have, and these are the best of them.

No. 3 to wear No. 55: Greg Monroe – 2018-19

Moose had two stints with the Celtics, and you’d think he was a disaster by the way some speak of those seasons. But the truth is the Georgetown product was a competent and at times excellent late-season addition for Boston.

While he never lived up to the outsized expectations of some of the Celtics fanbase, he did average 9.7 points, 2.1 assists and 6 rebounds per game over 28 games split between two seasons with the club.
