Basketball Trivia

You guys are good at your research. Yes, I went to Bloom and it was Colangelo. He graduated about 8 years before I did, but I was in the same class as his sister. Also, Dick Butkus' two sisters. They were twins. Fortunately for them, not to him, just to each other.

OK - here's one. After Bill Walton played for the Blazers, one other player wore his jersey number, 32, before the team retired it. Who was it?

According to BASKETBALL-REFERENCE.COM, two Portland players wore Walton's #32 after he played for the Blazers:
Mike Harper..........'81-'82 (123 games)
and the unforgetable....
Rolando Ferreira....'89 (12 games)
