When we think of Houston Rockets history, few jersey numbers carry the legacy of No. 14. While the number has been worn by 11 players over the decades, one name stands out from the late 2000s: Carl Landry.

Drafted 31st overall by the Seattle SuperSonics in 2007, Landry quickly found his home in Houston after a standout college career at Purdue. The Milwaukee native brought a gritty, hard-nosed style to the Rockets' frontcourt, earning a reputation as a reliable scorer and tenacious rebounder off the bench.

During his three seasons in Space City (2007-2010), Landry exclusively wore jersey No. 14, averaging an impressive 11.2 points and 5.1 rebounds per game. His energy and efficiency made him a fan favorite, and his mid-range jumper became a signature weapon in the Rockets' offense.

Landry's time in Houston came to an end in February 2010 when he was traded to the Sacramento Kings, but his impact on the franchise remains memorable. For Rockets fans who remember that era, seeing No. 14 brings back memories of a player who gave everything on the court—and that's exactly the kind of spirit any basketball fan loves to celebrate.

Whether you're collecting retro jerseys or just appreciating NBA history, Carl Landry's No. 14 is a reminder of the hard work and heart that defines Houston Rockets basketball.
