KD went from 35 to 7 but for some reason 35 will always be his legacy for me.

Paul George did 24 to 13.

I guess players might change numbers across teams but what are examples of players changing it on the same franchise.

I’m pretty sure Ant Edwards changed from 5 to 1

Why was Kobe's jersey change iconic?

He got both jersey numbers retired ...

At the time, i thought it was pointless and a gimmicky way to "one-up" Jordan.

In retrospect, it is kind of cool that both were retired, and he had what essentially felt like 2 separate HOF careers.

Marked the change from rapist to mamba mentality icon
