No jazz player has ever worn #29.

Jazz have had 29 All-star selections of forwards and/or centers.

Jazz selected Nazr Mohamaed with the 29th pick in the 1998 draft. Utah traded his rights to the Philadelphia 76ers for a future first round pick, which would turn out to be Quincy Lewis in the 1999 NBA Draft. 99-00 Would be the last time the Jazz made it out of the first playoff round untill the miracle of 2007.

in fact, only 26 players in league history have worn the number 29. calbert cheaney was 40 in utah and for most of his career, but was #29 during a two-year stint with denver that started when he was 29 years old. his very next stop was utah, where he averaged exactly 29.0 minutes in his one season here.

karl malone was 29 years old when he and john stockton shared the all-star MVP award the year the game was hosted in SLC. when stockton was 29, his points+assists average for that season was 29.5.

pervis ellison (#29) was part of the three team trade that brought jeff malone to utah. they traded bobby hansen (who was 29 years old and who had averaged 29.0 minutes per game in the previous playoffs) and eric leckner to the kings in order to obtain malone from the bullets. in the same trade, the bullets got ellison from the kings.

carlos boozer turned 29 just after he left utah and began his first season in chicago. devin harris turned 29 just after this past season's all-star break, and his replacement at the point, mo williams, is 29 now.
 
I have 3 sisters who are all 29, but not triplets ;-)
They used to be older than me, but oddly stopped aging. Even my brother now lies about his real age. So I went from being the "baby" of the family to apparently being the oldest.

Ooohhh. That was a close call, Mo. You were probably safe because most women cannot be seduced with statistical analysis, but still, I hope you've learned that it can be really dangerous to play with fire.

i turn off the nerd persona when i'm trying to pick up a woman. but it doesn't really matter, because i'm currently dating a lovely 27-year-old who KNOWS i'm a nerd and is mostly OK with it.
