During his time suiting up for the Sonics, Reynolds wore only jersey No. 35 and put up 7.6 points, 1.8 rebounds, and 1.1 assists per game.
The Oklahoma City Thunder (and the Seattle Supersonics before them) have 51 jersey numbers worn by the players who have suited up for the franchise since its founding at the start of the 1967-68 season. To commemorate the players who wore those numbers, Thunder Wire is covering the entire history of jersey numbers and the players who sported them since the founding of the team.
And while those Supersonics jerseys may not remain part of the franchise history should a new team be established in Seattle as was the case with the return of the Charlotte Hornets, they are part of the Thunder's history today.
For this article, we continue with the 35th jersey number in the series, jersey No. 35, with 11 players in total having donned the jersey in the history of the franchise.
The sixth of those players did so in the Seattle SuperSonics era, wing alum Jerry Reynolds. After ending his college career at LSU, Reynolds was picked up with the 22nd overall selection of the 1985 NBA Draft by the Milwaukee Bucks.
The Brooklyn, New York native would play the first three seasons of his pro career with the Bucks before he was dealt to Seattle in 1988. His stay with the team would span a single season, coming to an end when he was selected by the Orlando Magic in the 1989 NBA expansion draft.
During his time suiting up for the Sonics, Reynolds wore only jersey No. 35 and put up 7.6 points, 1.8 rebounds, and 1.1 assists per game.
