Every jersey number in Houston Rockets history tells a story, and No. 14 is no exception. Today, we're shining a spotlight on Dan Langhi, the third of 11 players to wear this number for the franchise.

Langhi's journey to the Rockets began in Nashville, where he starred at Vanderbilt University. His college success caught the attention of NBA scouts, and the Dallas Mavericks selected him with the 31st overall pick in the 2000 NBA Draft. But before he could even unpack in Dallas, a draft-night trade sent him to Houston—a move that would define the early years of his professional career.

Over two seasons with the Rockets (2000–2002), the Chicago native exclusively wore jersey No. 14. While his stat line—2.9 points and 1.6 rebounds per game—might not jump off the page, Langhi was part of a transitional era for the team. His tenure ended in 2002 when he signed with the Phoenix Suns.

For Rockets fans and jersey collectors alike, No. 14 represents a piece of the team's rich history. With seven jerseys already retired to honor legends like Hakeem Olajuwon and Clyde Drexler, every number—including Langhi's—adds to the tapestry of a franchise that has seen nearly 500 players suit up since its founding in 1967.

Whether you're a die-hard historian or just love the game, knowing the stories behind the numbers makes every Rockets jersey you wear a little more special.
