One specific thing Griffin always does has changed his number with each team he plays for. In his time with the Clippers, he wore the number 32, and with the Detroit Pistons, he wore the number 23. In addition, he carried Number 2 with the Brooklyn Nets during his time there.

Like the Celtics, Griffin will take a number that has been personified by none other than Chicago Bull‘s great Dennis Rodman. According to Boston Globe‘s Gary Washburn, Griffin will wear number 91 during his tenure with the Celtics.
