Golden State Warriors jersey history - No. 14 - Jackie Moore (1955-57)
The Golden State Warriors have had over 600 players don the more than 60 jersey numbers used by their players over the more than 75 years of existence the team has enjoyed in its rich and storied history.
Founded in 1946 during the Basketball Association of America (BAA -- a precursor league of the NBA) era, the team has called home the cities of Philadelphia, San Francisco, Oakland, and even San Diego.
To commemorate the players who wore those numbers, Warriors Wire is covering the entire history of jersey numbers and the players who sported them since the founding of the team. For this article, we begin with the 10th of 13 players who wore the No. 14 jersey for the Warriors.
That player would be Golden State forward alum Jackie Moore. After ending his college career at La Salle, Moore signed with the (then) Syracuse Nationals (now, Philadelphia 76ers) in 1954, who in turn dealt him to (then) Milwaukee (now, Atlanta) Hawks weeks later.
The Philadelphia, Pennsylvania native signed with the (then) Philadelphia (now, Golden State) Warriors in 1955 for his final two seasons in the NBA.
During his time suiting up for the Warriors, Moore wore only jersey Nos. 14 and 4 and put up 2.7 points and 2.5 rebounds per game.

Pacers Breakout NBA Finals Star 'Expected' to Be Trade Target
Pacers Breakout NBA Finals Star 'Expected' to Be Trade Target originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Wednesday's Game 3 of the NBA Finals series between the Pacers and the Thunder featured a guy who has been the breakout player of the 2025 postseason--point guard Tyrese Haliburton--as well as three-time All-Star Pascal Siakam and newly crowned NBA MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Yet the leading scorer was a bench player who had tallied 23 total points in his previous three games. Advertisement That would be Pacers guard Bennedict Mathurin. On a mere 12 field-goal attempts, Mathurin managed 27 points, as he went 2-for-3 from the 3-point line and 7-for-8 from the free-throw line. Such has been life in Indiana for Mathurin, the No. 6 overall pick in the 2022 NBA draft. He thrives as a high-volume shot creator, but plays for a team that operates on a ball-sharing, no-star basis. Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (2) and center Isaiah Hartenstein (55) and Indiana Pacers guard Bennedict Mathurin (00) battle for the loose ball during the third quarter of game two of the 2025 NBA Finals at Paycom Center. Mandatory Credit: Alonzo Adams-Imagn Images Mathurin is capable of having 27-point outbursts, as he did in Game 3. It's also no surprise when he chips in a mere five points in 16 minutes, as he did in Game 1. And while, maybe, if the Pacers pull off the upset and win this series over the Thunder, the team will happily bring back everyone on the roster, around the league, there are rumblings that Mathurin could land on the trade block this summer. Advertisement "I think that's almost expected," one NBA GM said. "If they want to keep other guys, someone has to go. They don't want to pay (Mathurin) so, the expectation is they'll see what they can get now while they can." Mathurin averaged 16.1 points this season, but the fit with the Pacers is specious. He has a salary of $9.2 million due next year, but he is up for a rookie scale extension this summer. The Pacers are expected to shell out to keep free-agent center Myles Turner this summer, but dealing Mathurin would partially offset his contract. The Pacers are not certain to trade Mathurin. If there is not a great market for him, the team could hold onto him for another year and seek to use him in a sign-and-trade in 2026, when he will be a restricted free agent if no extension deal is reached. Advertisement But they could pay a price by waiting. "Trading a restricted free agent, you're up against a wall," the GM said. "You want to make the deal now. And he is a young guy--he is 23 (next week). There will be a good market for him because a lot of young teams see him as a guy you can get a lot more out of in a different situation, with the ball in his hands more. "If you're the Pacers, you certainly have to listen to offers." The NBA Finals still have a long way to go, of course. But transaction season is sneaking up on the league, too. And Mathurin could loom as a target when that comes around. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 13, 2025, where it first appeared.

Grizzlies' Ja Morant Makes Major Career Move
Grizzlies' Ja Morant Makes Major Career Move originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Memphis Grizzlies drafted Ja Morant with the second overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft. Morant has career averages of 22.6 points, 4.7 rebounds and 7.4 assists. He signed a five-year, $197 million extension with Memphis in 2022. Advertisement However, the Grizzlies have won only one postseason series since drafting Morant, who has been suspended by the NBA twice for showing a gun on Instagram Live. A two-time All-Star, Morant appeared in 50 games for the Grizzlies this season. He averaged 23.2 points, 4.1 rebounds and 7.3 assists while shooting 45.4% from the field, 30.9% from 3 and 82.4% from the foul line. Memphis was swept by the Oklahoma City Thunder in the first round of this year's playoffs. Morant missed Game 4 after getting hurt in Game 3. Ja Morant doesn't have an agent anymore. Petre Thomas-Imagn Images The 25-year-old Morant has stayed out of the news until Thursday, as Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reported that the point guard has parted ways with Lift Sports Management. Advertisement Morant joined Lift, an agency headed by former NBA forward Mike Miller, in April 2024. "All indications are that the relationship between the Grizzlies and Morant remains strong," Cole wrote. "Morant could look to partner with another agency that best represents his goals. Another option for the Grizzlies star is self-representation." Morant will make $39.4 million next season, $42.2 million in 2026-27 and $44.8 million in 2027-28, the final year of his contract. Morant is eligible to sign a two-year extension this offseason. It's unknown if the Grizzlies will sign their best player to another lucrative contract.
