11 more days of Cousins to Utah rumours.
This is a continuation of one of my posts from the 12 thread yesterday. I mentioned that E.C. Coleman signed with the Warriors after playing for the Jazz. Under the (wacky imo) free agent rules of the day, the Jazz were entitled to compensation from Golden State. They got what turned out to be the #11 overall pick in the 1978 draft. With that pick, the Jazz selected James Hardy, who would wear #11 for the duration of his 4-year Jazz (and NBA) career. Hardy's career PER was 11.4, which of course rounds to 11. In 1980-81, Hardy made 11 FTs. In 1978-79, Hardy was 11th on the team in assists.
At #11 in the all-time Jazz ranks:
Games: Jarron Collins (480)
Minutes: Memo (15029)
Points: Jeff Hornacek (6848)
Rebounds: Adrian Dantley (2845)
Assists: Rich Kelley (1237)
Steals: Deron Williams (461)
Blocks: Otto Moore (292)

The favorite center-forward positions jersey number in soccer.

In their 11th season (1984-85), the Jazz were 11th in the league in FGAs and FTAs. John Stockton attempted 11 3PAs, Pace Mannion had 11 defensive rebounds, and Billy Paultz had 11 blocks. The Jazz won their 11th game of the season and went 2-0 when playing on the 11th. The Jazz had a 3-2 record in games decided by exactly 11 points.

What? As in Demarcus Cousins? Where are you hearing that? Link or it never happened.
This isn't like one of those Al Jefferson for a top 5 pick Kidd-Gilchrist things is it?
In their 11th season in Utah (1989-90), the Jazz were 11th in the league in 3PAs. Raymond Brown had 11 PFs. Karl Malone made 11(.1) FGs per game while pulling down 11(.1) rebounds. Delaney Rudd played 11 mpg while wearing #11. Blue Edwards' PER (10.7) rounds to 11. The Jazz won big in their 11th game of the season. The Jazz were 1-2 when playing on the 11th and 2-1 (including the playoffs) in games decided by exactly 11 points.

derek harper was the 11th pick by the mavs in the 1983 draft. in his 11th season with the mavs, he was traded to the knicks mid-season, and there he wore #11 in his three in NYC, ending in 1996 when he had 11 playoff three-pointers and 11 playoff free-throws. the next year he was back with the dallas mavericks, who were truly horrible that year and had no chance of making the playoffs. the mavericks tried to trade him to the jazz, but harper nixed the trade and then justified his decision when he famously remarked, "you go live in utah." had he come to the jazz, he would have been on the team for two finals runs, but instead he failed to make the playoffs again until his 1999 stint with the lakers (where he had a playoff PER of 11.3) and as such fell short of 11 playoff appearances (instead getting stuck on 10 years in the playoffs).
11 is also the number of career playoff games rony seikaly had under his belt as of the february 1998 trade deadline, when the jazz made a move for the greek/lebanese center. had seikaly joined the jazz that spring, he would have more than doubled his career playoff games in that one year alone (and possibly helped the jazz get over the top in their title quest, which fell short again that june), but instead he allegedly shot down the trade. he had talked to karl malone (whose all-star jersey number was #11, btw) about how excited he was to come, but quietly backed out and used a foot injury as the reason he didn't report. after that trade fell through, the magic traded him to NJ for ex-jazz david benoit and a future draft pick that orlando used to select matt harpring (along well as kevin edwards and yinka dare). seikaly then appeared in 3 playoff games for NJ that season when they were swept in the first round. he never again returned to the playoffs.
raja bell wore #11 for the sixers and mavs before he came to utah the first time. gordan giricek wore #11 for the sixers after the jazz traded him there for kyle korver. ronnie brewer wears #11 for the bulls. marty byrnes wore #11 for the pacers after he left the jazz. john crotty wore #11 for the cavs and heat after he left the jazz. gail goodrich wore #11 in his first three seasons with the lakers, about a decade before he came to the jazz. rickey green wore #11 for the bucks after he left the jazz. linas kleiza -- whose draft rights the jazz traded to get up to deron williams in the 2005 draft -- wears #11 for the raptors. karl malone wore #11 for his one season with the *gag* lakers. former jazz coach butch van breda koff wore #11 in his one season with the knicks during his playing days.

Russ Lee came to the Jazz via trade from the Bucks in October 1974 along with a future first-round pick that the Jazz would use to select the man who is currently at #11 on the all-time Jazz assist list, Rich Kelley. To get Lee and the draft pick, the Jazz traded Steve Kuberski (who wore #11 for the Celtics and the Bucks) and a future second-round pick that was used to select Clyde Mayes, who would have a PER of 11(.1) in his rookie season with the Bucks.
Lee had 11 steals in his 15 games with the Jazz in 1974-75. He had 11 steals with the Bucks the previous season. While Lee was still around (he was waived before the end of November 1974), the Jazz started out their existence with an 11-game losing streak. Lee wasn't the sole reason for that awful streak though, as the team would go through another 11-game losing streak later in the season.

Have you been hiding under a rock for the past few days? The Cousins' thread is now up to 32 pages. Should have more info by Saturday I'm told.
Ron Behagen played for the Jazz in the 1975-76 and 1976-77 seasons. He was traded to the Jazz by the Kansas-City Omaha Kings (who, incidentally were coached by future longtime Jazz assistant Phil Johnson). He was traded to the Jazz along with a future second-round pick. That pick was used to select Major Jones, who would eventually wear #11 with the Rockets. Major Jones had three brothers that played in the ABA or NBA: Wil, Caldwell, and Charles. Wil wore #11 with the Memphis Pros/Tams of the ABA. Caldwell wore #11 with the 76ers. Charles was the black sheep of the group and never wore #11. The Jazz traded a pick that was used by the Kings to select Bill Robinzine, who eventually played for the Jazz in 1981-82, registering a PER of 11(.3).
Back to Behagen. He averaged 11(.5) ppg in 1975-76. In his last year with the Jazz in 1976-77, the Jazz were 11th in the league in FGAs and pace.

Under a rock? No, but i was hiding from that 'call me a homer' thread (isn't that what you are talking about). I posted a couple of sarcasmisms in the thread, but didn't read the 20 something pages. So, I thought it was more wishful thinking than actual rumour, but really who can tell the difference?
But the link cleared things up for me, thanks.
J.J. Anderson signed with the Jazz on December 23, 1982. In the final game of the 1983-83 season, he had 11 points. He scored a season-high 15 points earlier in the season on March 11. He would score a total of 11 points in the 1984 NBA playoffs. The last time he scored exactly 11 points in an NBA game was on 11/20/1984 against the Kings. Two other Jazz players, John Drew and Thurl Bailey, also scored 11 points that game. They celebrated this feat after the game by listening to 311. OK, that last sentence was made up, but it might have happened if 311 had formed at the time.
Bart Kofoed was drafted by the Jazz in the 5th round of the 1987 draft. He managed to pull down 11 offensive rebounds in the 1987-88 season. In 1988-89, he pulled down 11 total rebounds and had 11 FTA's before being waived on January 4, 1989. He was waived after punching Bobby Hansen at a New Year's Eve party that Hansen hosted. Hansen got a broken cheekbone and missed more than 11 games.
Delaney Rudd was born 11/8/1962. He was drafted by the Jazz in 1985 but played overseas and in the CBA before starting his career with the Jazz in 1989-90. He spent three seasons with the Jazz. He scored 11 points three different games. One was 11/28/1990, when the Jazz beat the Rockets by 11 points. In 1989-90, the Jazz were 11th in 3PAs. In 1990-91, the Jazz were 11th in 3P%. In 1991-92, Rudd's final season with the Jazz, Rudd's teammate Ike Austin had 11 offensive rebounds.
Jacque Vaughn ended a lengthy period of no Jazzman wearing #11. His birthday is February 11. He scored exactly 11 points with the Jazz on four occasions. The first game it happened, the Jazz beat the Grizzlies by 11 points. Karl Malone had 11 rebounds. On another occasion, Vaughn had a +/- of +11 and John Starks had a -11. One time it happened and Olden Polynice had a +/- of +11 and the Jazz had 11 steals. The last time it happened Terry Porter got 11 points for the Spurs.
Vaughn got 11 assists for the Jazz twice. The first time, Mike Smith of the Wizards scored 11 points. The other time, Stockton had 11 FGAs. On the Warriors' side, Adonal Foyle had 11 rebounds, Bob Sura had 11 points, and Erick Dampier and Mookie Blaylock each had +/- of -11.
EDIT: His career salary as a player was $11m (rounded). He is now the coach of the Orlando Magic. The Magic were 11th in the league in total attendance last season. They were also 11th in opponent 3PAs.

Sasha Pavlovic spent his rookie season with the Jazz in 2003-04. He was 11th on the team in ppg. He was recently involved in the deal that sent Courtney Lee to the Celtics. Lee wore with #11 with the Magic.
Dee Brown played for the Jazz in the 2006-07 season. The Jazz were 11th in opponent FG% that year. Dee Brown twice scored more than 11 points. In one of those games Kurt Thomas with the Suns had a +/- of -11. It didn't matter because the Suns won big. The Jazz attempted 11 3's that game. In the other game Brown scored a career-high 13 points with 8 assists. The Jazz again took 11 3's. They also pulled down 11 offensive rebounds. Steve Novak, who imo is the most one-dimensional shooter in the history of one-dimensional shooters) had a +/- of -11 for the Rockets.
