Elton Brand - PF - Duke


Today we have a long time member of "the guys who wear The Number club". Elton Brand has been wearing The Number since back in the days when he was at Duke. Then in 1999, the Chicago Bulls made him the number one pick in the draft. He has continued to wear The Number from Chicago to LA to Philadelphia.
