jersey number
Athlete's back digits
A jersey number is the numeral displayed on an athlete's uniform, identifying them during play.
In team sports like basketball, football, and soccer, jersey numbers help officials, commentators, and fans track players on the field: He wore jersey number 23 in honor of Michael Jordan.
Certain numbers become iconic when associated with legendary players, and teams often retire jersey numbers to honor them.
