September 30 According to jersey reporter Etienne Catalan, with Jordan Jr. leaving the league (not yet signed), Jerry Williams will become the last player in NBA history to wear a No. 6 jersey.

On August 12, 2022, the NBA officially announced that all teams in the league have retired the No. 6 jersey to commemorate Bill Russell. The official statement also stated that players wearing No. 6 jerseys at that time will be allowed to continue wearing No. 6 without changing the number, but no new No. 6 will be generated.
