The Houston Rockets have had players donning a total of 52 different jersey numbers (and have one not part of any numerical series for Houston assistant coach and general manager Carroll Dawson) since their founding at the start of the 1967-68 season, worn by just under 500 players in the course of Rockets history.
To honor all of the the players who wore those numbers over the decades, Rockets Wire is covering the entire history of jersey numbers and the players who wore them since the founding of the team all those years ago right up to the present day.

With seven of those jerseys now retired to honor some of the greatest Rockets of all time to wear those jerseys, there is a lot of history to cover.

And for today's article, we will continue with the fourth of 14 players who wore the No. 4, guard alum Conner Henry. After ending his college career at UC Santa Barbara, Henry was picked up with the 89th overall selection (there were many more rounds in that era of the draft) of the 1986 NBA Draft by the Houston Rockets.
The Claremont, California native would play the first 18 games of his pro career with the Rockets before he was cut by the team signing with Boston in 1987.

During his time suiting up for the Rockets, Henry wore only jersey No. 4 and put up 1.3 points per game.
